Bartolomme de las casas: wrote about the conquering of the indies. And about all the horrors of the native people. He reported: - troop of spanaiards would come to village and raise the cross and flag and declare the community to come to the church or else they would destroy the village. They would say all in spanish and no one would understand = colonized everything. Then they just started to have fun, and started to hunt people via dogs.
