“The Spanish Conquisidors made our taming of the West look like a walk in the park.”
So they say, it wasn’t a walk in the park when they ran into the warrior tribes, Apaches,Navajos,Souix. Go to their reservations today, you’d have a hard time looking for Missions, because were not gonna easily conform to Catholicism, like the southerner tribes.
Google Navajo,Apache,wars with Spaniards you’ll find a lot of interesting things, the Conquistadors only conquered the smaller tribes and learned to stay away from the bigger tribes, the tribes finally settled down after the US military came thru, and we didn’t go down without a fight.
