Answer 1

Option: They gave the Native American leaders gifts, and they did not challenge the right of those leaders to govern their own people.

Step-by-step explanation:

After the arrival of Spanish in the New World, they began to take hold of resources to get wealth for their empire. Spanish settlers established colonies and forced Native Americans to work in the mines of silver and gold as well as in farms. To get hold of labours to work in the fields Spanish settlers began to give gifts to the Native Americans leaders so that they could allow their people to work in Spanish Farms.
