"The Life and Accomplishments of Francisco Pizarro," 2011,http://blog.coachcfa.com/2010/02/life-and-accomplishments-of-francisco.html
Francisco Pizarro explored South America which is now present day Peru, but then it was the location of the Incan Empire. Francisco went on this journey, ordered by the governor of Panama, to find wealth. But on his voyage toward the west coast of South America, the governor ordered him to turn around, to spare peoples' lives. (Roger Beck, Linda Black, Larry S. Krieger, Phillip Naylor, Dahia Ibo Shabaka, World History:Patterns of Interaction(Evanston, IL: McDougal Littel, 2009), page 557) But Pizarro still wanted wealth and did not mind ending lives. He invited any of his followers who desired for wealth like he did and continued to set off for South America.
Francisco accomplished two major things on his voyage to South America. He found new land, he gained plenty of wealth and he had workers (Incans) to get gold for him. There were various mines in the Andes Mountains that helped protect the Incans from intruders. But when Pizarro conquered the Incans and got information out of Atahualpa, he was informed of these mines. Afterward, he used the remaining Incans to work in these mines for him under brutal conditions. He then sent these goods back to Spain through his sea routes. This lead to the overworking of Native Americans in other locations.
Pizarro's main objective was to gain riches for himself since he was brought up from a poor family and to convert Incans to Christianity. Many Spaniards from this time period were on a mission to gain people to follow their religion. Though he killed thousands of Incans, he worked the ones left over and he converted their religion to Christianity. Pizarro also grew up in a poor family, this was a huge motive and objective for his voyage because he had never experienced having riches. This is also why he avoided the governor of Panama's orders; when he was appointed for the job, he was honored and not afraid about it. Francisco Pizarro was going to conquer the Incans with or without approval.
Pizarro established colonization in Peru by sending Spaniards to Lima, Peru where he conquered the Incans to make settlements. The riches from the Andes Mountains provided many golds and silvers to provide for Pizarro, his men, and to exchange with other countries to get material to build homes, and other settlements. These settlements also enlarged because other Spanish explorers conquered nearby lands so these settlements were able to work together and become one. The work of Francisco Pizarro tells why there are many Spaniards in South America to this day.
