It is interesting to see the changing face of European colonialism. First, Portugal breaks out as a new State from Spain; then goes on the rampage all over the world – only to be cutback by other marauders (sorry, explorers and traders), especially Spain – all of whom pray to the same god. The planets have no respect for our insubstantial god, do they?
Then, other marauders, especially England and the Netherlands, rob Spanish carriers of loot from the Americas. Without this loot, Europe would not have been able to finance its trade and economic development, especially through the money changers authorised by the Pope.
So much misgotten wealth, leading to so much suffering by the ‘natives everywhere,’ who were overcome by such superior white fellows, and their arrogant and misdirected priests.
