Answer:

✔️Age of Contact

Step-by-step explanation:

The Age of Contact is the major era in Texas history which is characterised by european explorers, large ships crossing the Atlantic Ocean and conquistadors in search of gold.

During this era, conquistadors were in search of gold. When Christopher Columbus arrived America, the Spanish heard of stories of civilization and wealth. So they wanted those riches and sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to get there. But when the conquistadors got there, they failed to find the wealth and resources that they were looking for.
