These are the deliberate/chance Spanish Methods of Colonizations


Deliberate: 

Set up the encomienda system. Protection in exchange for tribute

Mita. Was already in place when the Spanish got there. Work a few months and then off. Switch.

But the Spanish work them for 4 months on a project and then move them again and again and this kills them off. 

Forced labor system. Made by the native but manipulated by the spanish.

Alliances with disgruntled neighboring tribes. Example: tlaxcala against the aztecs. 

Chance:

Columbian exchange.  

Virgin soil epidemic: no immunities to foreign disease. So when European diseases hit them, they have no immunity and it wiped them out. Smallpox is the main one.

Ungulate Irruption: animals eat everything in sight, wreaking havoc on agriculture and the ecosystem.  Bring in invasive species and their own animals that are too different from what the natives were used to and it tears up their land or eats it away.
