摘要

Europe's drive for American colonies was hugely disruptive. At first, it was headed by Spanish soldiers, traders and priests, but as with many great movements of people, civilizations clashed and the frontiers became battlegrounds. The Spaniards went on to destroy the native civilizations of Mexico although, cleverly, they did not always do it by a frontal assault. Spanish governors sometimes ruled through local intermediaries. The first viceroy (in a loose sense), Hernan Cortes, made tactical alliances with the lesser kingdoms: the Tlaxcala, for example, helped him defeat the Aztecs, their arch-enemies. The American case was rather different: the mainspring of the first expeditions was less a matter of economic gain than a flight away from established religion. The mass invasion and occupation of the hinterland came later.
