Introduction
The conquest and colonization of America refers to
the historical process by which various European
powers conquered and established systems of
colonial domination in the American continent, from
the end of the 15th century to the 19th century. This
process implied the disappearance of the great
American empires, particularly the Inca Empire and
the Aztec Empire, as well as the demographic
collapse of the American population. Simultaneously,
the colonial powers imposed the widespread use of
European languages in the Americas, mainly
Spanish, English and Portuguese.
