For instance, while the Indians opted to kill the Spanish hoping that they would vacate their lands, the Spaniards were responding by creating a detachment among the pueblos hoping that the resistance would be weakened. Economically, the locals were denied the opportunity to become stable since the Europeans held that such a move would make them stable and thus, difficult to manipulate (Vaughan, 43-46). That saw…
