What do people think the French and Spanish were doing?
It’s like they forget that Spain financed Columbus, and it was Spain that rampaged through what is now Central America, and destroyed all the works (who knows how much of history was lost?) of the Mayans and Aztecs.
Spain then went on to install Maximillion as king of Mexico.
There’s a lot more in between there that I’ve forgotten, but holy hell the Conquistadors put the English to shame when it comes to outright brutality and destruction.
Right?
