Answer:

Alexandro O'Reilly envío una carta a la Corona de España describiendo las condiciones de Puerto Rico y el describe a los puertoriqueños como personas que no tenían mucho conocimiento.

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, what Alexander O'Reilly was looking for with his letter was to demonstrate to the Spanish crown the charms and beauty for royalty to invest in Puerto Rico.

In addition to this, in the letter, it was well detailed that the lands of Puerto Rico were very fertile and this favored agriculture and commerce, which was the basis of the economy at that time.

These letters caught the attention of the West, since tobacco, sugar cane, and pepper (products that grew in Puerto Rico) were considered luxury products.

And at the end of the letter, Alexander explains that Puerto Rico is at a certain disadvantage with other countries, but that being people without much knowledge it would be easy to manage.
