After the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus in 1492 led Spain to become one of the powerful empires in Europe. The Roman Church played a significant role especially, by Pope Alexander VI in giving Inter Caetera to Spain. Papal Bull authorizes Spain to colonize the New World.

Spain began to establish colonies which spread in large territories of Central and South America. Conquistadors and explorers began exploring in the new territories between 1520 to 1550 and brought vast unknown land under their control larger than their own country.

Spain was able to get bullion of gold and silver, which helped them to prosper their economy by giving purchasing power in Europe. Spain's fleet of galleons controlled the sea route and the trade in the New World.
