Pros And Cons Of Encolonizing The New World

The royal advisor comes in the room with a letter addressed by Christopher Columbus. The King of Spain, takes the letter and opens it, hoping that Columbus has succeeded the in the colonization of the New World. He didn’t disappoint. My decision to colonize the New World was reasonable and just. First most because of many of the crops found that can flourish our countries economy but, most of all, the unspeakable amount of gold said be found at the New World. An opportunity that shouldn’t be missed. Before discovering the New World, Europe had a lack of crops that would sell efficiently in Spain. The only crops here were apples, bananas, rice, wheat, onions, citrus fruits, and coffee. Some of which are difficult to grow because of the environment of Europe, how its climate is frosty. The New World came along and gave us many new crops that made all of us happy and want to grow. Crops like potatoes grew in almost any condition which made it impossible for the crop the die during
development. Selling it was almost a no-brainer. Everyone bought potatoes, increasing profit for crops. The tobacco is also a crop that is loved in Europe because of the feeling it gives, the government also achieves high profit because the crop is so expensive and many people buy it. The king even admires the feeling that tobacco gives him that he has special orders for the plant. Showing many of the harvest have the potential for being popular and resourceful for the population. These byproducts from the New World help shape Europe in a good way which influenced us to colonize the New World to harvest these crops and grow some of our own. Another crucial yet, greedy, reason colonizing the New World was a good idea, was because of all the gold we found there. According to Columbus’s Letter, the Natives will give many valuable treasure for items barely worth as much as the treasure they give us. The lands south of the New World hold millions of pieces of gold says many conquistadors that go and search. These Natives are so gullible that they trust us not to betray them and treat them horrible, in which we take advantage of them, of course all according to Columbus’s Letter. Gold is a valuable resource and we are to claim it first because a citizen of Spain has discovered the New World come into the eyes of the whole world and it’s only fair that we get all the gold we can find from the Natives who live here. Another thing from Columbus’s Letter, the Natives are very durable, powerful people. All the more useful that they can be. They can help fight other Natives to steal and accumulate their valuables. We will become the wealthiest country in Europe and the King will increase in power. Those are some of the reasons why colonizing the New World was a successful decision. Now many believe we should not have colonized the new world.
Yes, there are cons to colonization but, the pros outweigh the cons. According to the Friars Semen, we treat the Natives like they are not human beings. We aren’t treating them horribly, we feed them, give them breaks during work and all the rights of a normal human being. We acknowledge their position as a human exerting these rules to show we care. Another complaint we here about our actions, according to the Friars Semen, enslaving the Natives or any human being is morally wrong. We do know that enslaving humans is wrong but, the thing is that these Natives are being nice and doing most of the hard work for us, out of their free will and they don’t put up a fight. They love working for us and that we don’t betray them. As you can see, we treat the Natives with the same amount of respect and give them the same amount of rights like us. They just love working with us and giving us what we want, all out of their free
will. In conclusion, we get rich and prosperous because of the New World and the decision was reasonable one. So, the decision to colonize the New World was reasonable and just. We receive much money from getting gold. We get more harvest and produce more money from crops from the New World. All in all, colonizing the New World was the best thing to happen to Europe and we greatly appreciate the Natives help in making settlements and most of everything else possible. Our future is looking bright and in our favor.
