In 1891 a boy named Rafael Trujillo was born by a middle aged family in San Cristobal on October 24, 1891. Another thing was that he was one of 11 children and was the third of them all. When he started growing up Trujillo wanted a job so what he decided to do was go and take a job as a Telephone Operator at the age of 16 years after attending a formal elementary school and a private middle school. So after he had his job for a little while Trujillo decided to forge a check from his family bank and because of that he lost his job and also was served time in jail. Also in 1916 Trujillo was known to be in a gang that had also supported him to his criminal ways and was part of the reason that he had forged the check in the first place. After

Bartholomé de las Casas refers to the Spanish Captains as “Enemies of the human race”. They showed no pity or innate humanity whatsoever as they charged their dogs onto the defenseless Indians, tearing them to pieces and devouring them. Moreover, if a Spaniard fell while committing these atrocities, the Captains vowed to slay one hundred innocent Indians in

America wasn’t always a safe place for the Native Americans, their resources ran scarce as all their crops began to die out. The Mexicans raided their camps and stole the some of Native people, for slave labor. Eventually, the Americans came only to side with the Mexicans because of the language barrier. The Mexicans took their advantage of being able to communicate with the Americans and told them that the Navajos were dangerous people. The Americans believed them, they ordered for the Navajo people to stop raiding the slave traders. Many chiefs refused to sign the agreement, leading America to declare war on the Navajos. Kaii's uncle informed him that the Americans burned their crops, killed their livestocks and cut down their peach trees, “they drove our people to exile. They sent us on the Long Walk.” A walk of a hundreds miles, to a place called Fort Sumner. Many people

The Spanish did not want to coexist fairly with the Puebloans after colonizing their territory by forcing upon them Catholicism, slavish labor, and confiscating their scarce supplies, so the Puebloans devised to revolt. The Puebloans were misdirected with the system they would be placed under in exchange for labor and supplies known as the Encomienda system they would soon oppose. They were equally misdirected by the Inquisition which after its understanding would not agree with either. It was no easy task to drive this powerful empire away from their land, but the Puebloans should have also planned for how they would solve their current problems such as famine, worsening economic conditions, and now lacking protection.

Brian Delay wants the reader to be informed about the significance of the Indian people and how it plays a huge role in the U.S. Mexican War. He discusses how the Comanches, Navajos, Apaches, Kiowas, and others reshaped the Mexican territory in which was later disputed by the Americans. Furthermore, he explains how many Mexicans and Americans forget that the Indian tribes were enemies that cause U.S. to interfere with and view Mexico differently. The Indian tribes were a cause of Mexican weakness and the betrayal of the Americans of the Mexican people. In other words, Delay explains that Indian people were the definite cause that led to the international conflict.

Francisco Pizarro was born in Trujillo, Spain circa 1476. He was assassinated on June 26, 1541 in Lima, Peru by members of an enemy group of conquistadors. Before then, when Pizarro returned to Panama he prepared a quest, but the spanish governor refused back to the scheme. Later on, in 1528, Pizarro sailed back to Spain to ask the support of Emperor Charles V. Hernan Cortes who had just brought the emperor great wealth through his conquest of the Aztec Empire and Charles approved Pizarro’s idea.

a soldier, and a conquistador, Francisco Pizarro was born in the year of 1474 in Trujillo, Spain. As a soldier, he went on the big, important trip of Vasco Nunez de Balboa in 1513. When he went there, he discovered the Pacific Ocean. Since he wanted to make his own discoveries and his own fortune, Pizarro found a partner named Diego de Almagro. They decided to go to Peru in 1526 and then came back to see if they can claim Spain as theirs. In 1531, their big, important trip (which had Pizarro's three half-brothers) sailed from Panama. The next fall Pizarro went to Cajamarca and took Atahualpa (Inca Leader) hostage. Even though they had paid a ransom to spare his life, Atahualpa was

Reasons are quiet clear. It was a fight for freedom from tyranny, persecution, and unjust taxation. The Pueblo people were live in the position of under control by the Spanish. Especially, they lived under the system of encomienda, which they have to contribute a portion of their agricultural to a common storehouse for use by their own poor and their native religious.  The Pueblo Revolt of 1680 — also known as Pope's Rebellion — was an uprising of most of the Pueblo Indians against the Spanish colonizers in the province of Santa Fe de Nuevo México, present day New Mexico. The Pueblo Revolt killed 400 Spanish and drove the remaining 2,000 settlers out of the province. Twelve years later the Spanish returned and were able to reoccupy New Mexico with little

Francisco Pizarro was one of the many conquistadors who explored the then New World. It was also known as the Americas. Pizarro mainly conquered the South America area where Peru now stands. He is best known for overthrowing the Inca king Atahualpa and establishing the capital Lima in Peru. Pizarro was born an illegitimate child of Gonzalo Pizarro, who was a spanish captain who did several campaigns in Italy. When Pizarro was a boy he was intrigued of stories of the New World, he gained a quick interest in exploring. So he joined Vasco Núñez De Balboa on an expedition to the Americas. On this expedition they discovered the Pacific Ocean. Of course the Pacific Ocean was already found by early settlers but this was probably the first time someone had actually documented the findings of this huge mass of water. Francisco Pizarro also had threes brothers who accompanied him on his road to conquering Peru for Spain. He also had a partnership with Diego de Almagro, which went bitter after a few years of adventuring.

The Navajos warred with the Spanish to protect their lands (Gilio-Whitaker). The Navajos were resistant to the Spanish until the Americans went to war with Mexico. This war lead to the creation of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo and the formation of New Mexico (Gilio-Whitaker). The Navajo Tribe continually fought with the United States. Military troops were sent to intimidate the Native Americans. Many surrendered and moved to new areas such as Utah (“Navajo Indians”). The others hid to avoid being caught. Colonel Kit Carson invaded the Navajos and forced them to surrender. Many Navajos died. They were forced out of their homelands in the Long Walk. They were marched to a reservation in New Mexico. In 1868, a new treaty allowed them to return to a reservation in their homeland.

“The Coming of the Spanish and the Pueblo Revolt” (Hopi) illustrates how the interactions of two distinctly different groups of people inevitably change the dynamics of each group, collectively and individually. This story is told from the Hopi perspective, but the outcome of the Pueblo Revolt is historically validated. It is the events described in this story that show how the Hopi and the Spaniards change by contact with each other. A few of the changes for the Hopi were the upheaval of their Utopian-like existence by the arrival of the Spaniards, the need to practice their religion secretly, and the determination to use violence to defend their own, even though it was

Today we are staying in Havana again and we are going to visit the Cementerio de Cristóbal Colón. Also, today was not very nice weather wise, it started to rain, which is rare, because the dry season is from October to mid- April and the rainy season is from June to November. I’ve heard that if you travel to Cuba during the rainy season make sure to bring an umbrella and even boots because the streets can become ankle deep in water. Luckily, I brought my umbrella with so I am still going to visit the cemetery, I don’t want to waste any time in this beautiful country. The cemetery was named after Christopher Columbus and is noted for its elaborately sculpted memorials. Today people think that the cemetery has more than 500 large mausoleums,
