E. Napp Date: ___________________. The Spanish conquest of Latin America brought many important changes to Latin American society. Spain sent royal governors or viceroys to rule the colonies in the kingâs name.Gold and silver from the Americas were shipped to Spain, making it the strongest power in Europe in the 16th century.ative American populations had declined rapidly in parts of Latin America due to a lack of immunity to diseases brought by the conquerors like measles and smallpox. The European encounter with the Native American Indians led to an exchange of ideas, customs, and technologies. Global cultural diffusion increased.
By 1825, Spanish and Portuguese power was broken in the Western Hemisphere, and nine new political units emerged in Latin America. Mexico, Guatemala, Great Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina, and Chile were free of Spain, and Brazil had gained its independence from Portugal.nce free of those powers, however, the new nations of Latin America were hampered by European and North American dominance over their economic and political affairs. For most of the new Latin American nations their first half century was a time of decline and disappointment.
