The Conquistadors | All Parts (Episodes 1 - 4) 

What's the name of the book ?

wow you are like the first person to acknlowedge the propaganda by the other european nations many of those countries are responsible for nearly wiping out natives aswell, by the time they arrived spanish/indians had already established their own culture due to having kids, not all native tribes were treated hostile

You understand that Spaniards killed millions of people?

How did you conduct your research ?

Howd you find out?

My Ancestor was Narvarez.

Definitely they sailed thru hurricanes. Marched thru uncharted land with hostile natives. When the boats were destroyed, they built new ones from the land and used deer carcasses and shirts for sails. The Spanish sailors were definitely hardcore. I wonder what all training they had to go thru to learn all these skills did they learn in the Spanish Navy? They had to do hunting, boat building, navigation, fighting, marching long distances. I only watched the first part but I'm in awe of Cabeza de Vaca's adventures....holy shit.

The word "Conquistadores" does not exist in spanish, it's a mistake. The correct word is "Conquistadores" which is the plural of "Conquistador" a singular word. Ex: 1 Conquistador. 2 Conquistadores.

​@@smartkitville7167???

The right word is “invaders” They came and destroy my ancestors empire! They brought deseases and forced my people to convert to Catholicism. Therefore they don’t deserve any credit ! Period

Tf? Is your brain not functioning? The whole world had been explored many many times by many many people’s for forever pretty much tf yu mean 1st explorers lmao

@@flinteyesonofsun614 The Spaniards were the 1st explorers to explore America idiot

Lol, sure

Never hate yourself. Someone talks shit, they’re a tard.

Would you say the same thing if you were related to…say Hitler. Different strokes, same brush of genocide.

​@@walkerahlnot even,but whatever 😂

​@@walkerahl That's not true. And I think you already know that. Instead of lying and/or being illiterate about Spain's history in America, making a poor approach on the subject, what if you actually read about it, taking a profound interest in primary and secondary sources? But no: this takes time and effort.

Mauricio Garcia is that you?

@@Efrain891 NO, sorry

@@blacksunsigrune8831 It was a joke. Your username reminds me of the mass shooter in Allen, TX.

Proud of what exactly ….. mass genocide ?

SHAaAD AAAP ! Consquistadors built the world you benefit from EVERYDAY. BTW, there was no genocide, mass or otherwise. And some of the native tribes gave as good as they got. You wouldn't last five seconds in that world. @@walkerahl

It couldn’t have been more clear and explained to

What you have just described is the definition of a colony... The Spanish enacted a strict caste system among the natives, enslaved Africans, and Spaniards (who were at the very top)... Yes, the gold was partially spent to fund universities and infrastructure for the Spaniards in the New World, but a LOT of it was spent on the Spanish Armada, which was wiped out by the British in 1588. The Spanish also used the gold/silver of Mexico and Peru to fund their lavish palaces across Spain and the New World... Also, yes, the Spanish did import African slaves. (Into Argentina specifically)

Está claro , los españoles somos tan crueles como ingleses, portugueses, franceses, holandeses y chinos...jajaja.😂

​​@@wmw05 How can a strict caste system exist in a society where everyone freelxy intermarries?

​@@wmw05 The castes in spanish America was not a system. A black people could be a noble. In Venezuela it's a lot of examples of black nobles there. Why it wasn't a system? Because in spanish America you was a vertical society. In India, if you born in a caste you will be always in that caste for live.

Thanks for the book recommendations

Read Conquistadors twice. They shame men of today.

Knight of Spain: Warriors of the Sun by Charles Hudson is an amazing book about Hernando De Soto

@@kushmaster5000 That one's on my wishlist!

I actually have "The Last Days of the Incas" but haven't started reading it yet.

I am a direct decendent of Pedro de Alvarado Govornor of Guatemala.

We cannot presume to know their intentions, but we can judge them based on their actions. Which was mass genocide, rape and destruction of entire nations.

There’s nothing to be proud of, they were murderers. And you had nothing to do with it. Be proud of your own accomplishments…Weaboo 😂

@@bryans.1710 I don’t care about any of those people. My focus is on the now, not in the past regarding things I have no control over. Weak minded people like you try to latch on to the contributions of peoples who you don’t know. Stop it, you didn’t contribute anything. Focus on your own accomplishments. Loser

@@bryans.1710 I’m indifferent to it. If you like it, that’s your prerogative. But worshipping it like you were actually part of the reasons l those events took place is cringe. None of those real events in history are paying my bills or feeding my stomach. So why should I care?

@@adventureswithmichaelakaec7497 for real

You have anime profile pic lol, they would hate you

They did have fear, but they didn't let that get in the way of conquering and exploring.

Who were savages ? The Spaniards with their mass genocide, barbaric practices and destruction of native language and culture certainly qualify as savages

Don’t call my ancestors savages they were more civilized then you think

You are correct. The Aztec and Mayan and Incan civilizations were amazingly well organized and yet didn't use wheeled vehicles as the had no horses. It's a shame about their religion; no one can defend a faith that requires cutting out hearts of living people (babies as well) then eating their corpses.@@maestro4086

imagine seeing an anaconda for the first time

Wow. And not in a good way

That's because they never got to see how those conquistadores enslaved/ murdered/ pillaged their people. Columbus himself was a serial killer who killed so many Taino Indians. Today the world celebrates his accomplishment to America.. A land he NEVER touched.

​@@thisworldiswonkaif you don't like it then kick rocks. Embrace history not burn it like crazy liberals do.

😂😂😂

Mucho más cristianos quenlos que llevaron a ingleses o franceses a esas tierras. La historia es testigo de ella, por mucho que tantos sigáis vertiendo mentiras y basura. Por cierto, es la única conquista de la historia donde se les exige a los conquistadores buenos motivos para ella, motivos cristianos. Es simplemente gracioso que no veáis lo ridícula que resulta la forma que tenéis de ver y juzgar toda la histiria referente al Imperio Español..

Yes, and according to you, what were they?

En palabras del genial francés Hyppolite Taine: "HAY UN MOMENTO CUMBRE DE LA ESPECIE HUMANA: LA ESPAÑA DE 1500 A 1700" Tal cual. In the words of the brilliant Frenchman Hyppolite Taine: "THERE IS A HIGH MOMENT FOR THE HUMAN SPECIES: SPAIN FROM 1500 TO 1700" Exactly.

Typical fallacy of the black legend. It is obvious that one can only discover what already exists. One cannot discover the atom if there are no atoms. One cannot discover the smallpox virus if it had not existed for centuries before. By definition, to discover something it has to preexist. It is called a discovery because the Native Americans who lived in America for thousands of years before did not know how or where their continent was, and the rest of the world was unaware of the existence of America. It was the Spanish who discovered, mapped and placed them in the world of their time.

Long before the Spanish did, the Portuguese ventured into unknown waters and started the age of discoveries.

@@Cobalt1520 Never loosing sight of the coast....it took a Spanish expedition to dare to cross the Atlantic Ocean in its widest part.

@@jonayz8655 long before the America, the Portuguese discovered Madeira Island (1419) and the Azores (1427), both of them obviously not within sight of land, but on the middle of the Atlantic. Portugal had the superior navigators, technics and sailors of that time.

@@Cobalt1520 You can't compare that with crossing a whole Ocean which you don't know how wide it really is. Azores?madeira? that's peanuts. The canary islands are further away from Europe for that matter. If the Portuguese were so good, why didn't they discover America, or why didn`t they circumnavegate the Earth for the first time?

@@jonayz8655 The canary Island where not discovered by the Spanish, it was already inhabited by people originary from North Africa, the Guanches, And it was discovered by the ROMANS, 2000 years ago. The Portuguese DID circumnavigate the globe MAGELLIAN was PORTUGUESE. Columbus worked for the Portuguese crown and lived in Portugal before he went to work for the Spanish Crown, he learned what he knew with the Portuguese, and there are theories that say he stole Portuguese maps (at the time maps were very valuable, it was in fact the treasure map). BTW, he was not Spanish. Oh, and the Portuguese discovered the maritime route to India which changed for ever the World's power balance, and Brazil of course. The Portuguese were the first Global Empire to exist... A nation of only 1 million people at that time!!! And you say they were not "so good"? They were the best!!

Most of us here in N.M. are both indigenous & Spanish. I am & so are about 300,000 people in N.M. We are proud of both!!! 🔥

Los nativos, como los Txalcaltecas, fueron claves en la conquista de nuevas tierras en América para el Rey de España. No todos los nativos fueron enemigos, muchos se aplicaron por causas políticas, y otros aceptaron el choque de civilizaciones de forma más o menos pacífica. Otros seguían luchando cuando el Imperio cayó. Deberías informarte mejor, hay miles de historias que contar acerca de la conquista de América mucho más alla de las simplicidad de la leyenda negra. Sin indígenas, Hernán Cortés nunca habría entrado en Tecnoxlican. No Pizarro en Cuzco.

What did they achieve? 😂😂

the reason is they are Spaniard , accordingly to the English they do not deserved the title of CONQUERORS In English ,that is why they refer to them as Conquistadors

​@@JamesSmith-ui2hv Yes, but that's not how it is writen, its "Conquistadores" with an "e" in the end before the "s". Plural in Spanish is done adding "es", not just an "s" like in English. "conquistadors" is a anglicized version of the plural of "Conquistador", and it is wrong because there is already an original version AND there is also an English version (Conquerors), so there is no need to invent another word.

@@Cobalt1520 Not really, it have nothing to do with grammar

@@JamesSmith-ui2hv Ok, whatever. I don't think it is anything related to politics, I believe its just ignorance. Its like if a Spanish person called "the Tudors" as "Los Tudores".... ridiculous, isn't it? Seems like something out of the Monty Python, or rather "Los Monty-Pythones".

Florida, USA. It gained statehood in 1845 making it the 27th state.

@@montanakid wow, la Florida became Florida.

Same here and also to some import figures in history. 😊

Latin what? What Latins? There have NEVER been Latins in America. The only Latins were four ancient Mediterranean European peoples: the Italians, the Dacians, the Gauls and the Hispanics. These ancient Europeans DISAPPEARED, forever, in the distant Ancient Age, many centuries ago. America and Americans are much later, they emerged in the Modern Age, more than a THOUSAND years after the Latins disappeared. Saying Latin American is a falsehood, worse, it is IMPOSSIBLE, an oxymoron. Because. - if he was Latin, America and Americans did not yet exist. - if he was American, he could NOT have known Europeans, Latins, who disappeared many centuries before America and Americans existed. They are HISPANIC AMERICANS from HISPANIC AMERICA.

Quien dice esa bobada?

@@rubencuadros7174 the Portuguese were the first to expel the moors long before Spain was a thing

@@brunotorres7332 Y que tiene que ver una cosa con otra?

@@rubencuadros7174 the name Conquistadores is often used to describe the Spanish yet os conquistadores are Portuguese just that

@@brunotorres7332 Why are the Portuguese the conquistadores and not the Spanish? The Spanish conquered the most powerful empires in America and most of the continent. Spain even conquered Portugal in a couple of months under the command of the Duke of Alba. The Portuguese, except in Brazil, opened factories on the coasts or stayed near the coast they arrived. Conquistadores mis cojones.

That is pretty impressive amigo, just to have Cortez or Alvarado as an ancestor is "blue blood" in Mexico, and Latin America, having Knights of Santiago and Captains as well. Better keep that a secret, it's dangerous to "big-note" like that, as there is EASTMAL (fj parasites etc.) who pay literally Million$ to "ELIMINATE HISTORY"

Another one who swallows, without chewing, the false black legend...

did people fly at the time? how advanced

No. Diseases did.

No but they did have moorish/ Arab blood that's why most spainards are tan with dark hair like me.

@@jonathanrecinos5894 No, we hardly mixed with the Arabs and after the reconquest those who remained and had not converted to Catholicism were expelled. In addition, over the centuries, the populations of the reconquered territories, if they did not want to be Christians, fled to the south, so that in the end the majority were in Al Andalus. Even so, only on average 7% of the population have Arab or North African ancestry. The Muslims did not replace the populations they conquered, they became the ruling class. The same happened throughout North Africa and today the population is more or less the same as before the spread of Islam. That is why they could expand so quickly because their tactic was to convert to religion and then unite to conquer more territories with the warriors of the populations that they had already conquered. The brown skin color predates the Arabs, because the Celtiberians were here, who were a mixture between Celtic and Iberian tribes from North Africa. In addition to the Phoenician, Greek colonies, etc. in different parts of the Iberian Peninsula. The same happened with the Romans, who despite belonging to the empire hardly mixed with the natives. I also have to say that after the expulsion of Jews and Muslims, quite a few went to live in the colonies of America, apart from those who went to the Ottoman Empire and North Africa. In addition, at that time, purity of blood prevailed when it came to obtaining titles or reaching important positions in the Royal Court. Those who descended from those who took refuge in the north, in what was called the Kingdom of Asturias, were considered full-blooded Spaniards. So most of the conquerors came from there, that's why there are so many Basque surnames.

Why did the USA do better?

Porque hace más de 200 años que se independizaron de España. Entonces se endeudaron, comprando armas para luchar por su independencia , con Francia, Inglaterra, Holanda y EEUU. Así siguen todavía. España no tiene la culpa!

Porque la América hispana se endeudó hace unos 200 años comprando armas a los ingleses, franceses, holandeses y a los estadounidenses para independizarse de España. Todavía arrastran esas deudas y sus deudores no quieren permitir que se recuperen. Además México perdió California y Texas, perdiendo también el oro y el petróleo que poseía. España no tiene la culpa de nada de eso!! 😌

Another one who swallows, without chewing, the false black legend...

​@@sonneillionx7705 Perhaps because most of what is now the United States was civilized by the Spanish, it was the Spanish who arrived in the United States 200 years before the English and in a large part of the territories of the United States Spanish was spoken 150 years before English. In 1800 New Spain was the most advanced, prosperous and rich territory (with Peru) in the world, above Spain, Europe and far, far above the United States. At that time New Spain exported 25 (TWENTY FIVE) times more than the United States. Then the United States stole the gold from California and the oil from Texas...
