Evaporate is when a type of liquid (for example water) gets or absorbs too much heat and turns into a gas (for water; water vapor). Granulated is when something (for example sugar) is broken down into small chunks and/or pieces (like taking a sugar cube and smashing it with a heavy object). Dissolve means (for a solid) to be put in a liquid (like water) to form a solution. In other words, to be melted and/or be put into really small pieces until not visible from the human eye or from microscopic view.

Christopher Columbus discovering of America (New World)

Christopher Columbus was going to go to Asia sailing west. Also that Christopher Columbus is Italian. But he did not get there right away. To go he had to gave money which is a certain amount he didn’t have. He begged all king a kings for about 6 years until the king and queen of Spain funded him with the money. Other kings and queens thought that the world was flat. They thought that if u passes the horizon that you would fall out of earth. But the king and queen of Spain thought differently. They thought that if it really worked that they would be richer for making that journey possible. So that’s what they exactly did. They funded Christopher Columbus is group with a sufficient amount of money so they can make their journey. Christopher wanted to sail to the west to Asia to try to invent something new. Also because they would have to travel by land to get to Asia through the Silk Road. They would often be attacked by robbers who would steal their silk. Plus it also took them a very long time to get the silk and spices because they would have to go over mountains and go around little rivers and they would travel by horse (only way to travel in those days).  They started sailing in August of 1492. The crew had the advantage of Christopher Columbus because he learned to sail at the age 14. He went on the journey with 87 crew members on board. They had gone to “Asia” with 3 ships. The names of the three ships were Santa Maria, La Nina and Pinta. Christopher was in the ship Santa Maria. As they went along they bumped in to land which Christopher thought was Asia. But it was really the West Indies (Caribbean). The first island he ran into in the Caribbean was the Bahamas. He got their within 29 days (a month) of sailing. Once he was there he found gold and took it to take it back to the Europeans. He also kidnapped some Native Americans to bring them back to Europe. He returns to Spain in the year 1943 with the gold, Native Americans and exotic plants. Once the king and queen of Spain saw what he had discovered did, they continued to fund him. When Christopher was back everybody thought he was a hero. So after that the exploration of the 3g’s started existing. The three G’s where, God, Gold, glory. For the God part the people of Europe wanted to teach the Native Americans the way of the God. They wanted to force them to be catholic.                                                             

How the Spanish got their people to go to the 'New World'

Spain made ​​the Spanish fence to the thirteen American colonies that were offered a major concession was called encomienda. The people who did not have much land in Europe were the 13 colonies to get more land. The hand that did work were the Native Americans. The responsibilities of the owners of the parcels was to teach Christianityand pay a fair wage for natives. Natives who did labor now were slaves because they were treated very badly and Native Americans were treated very cruel and they workedand worked until dark. They were treated almost the same as or treated as a slave. 

The 4 different social classes of New Spain

The first and highest class is peninsular. Important role of a Peninsular is being part of the government. Also is for them to hold important churches in New Spain. The third important role of a peninsular is to own land and colonize all over New Spain. They also have pure Spanish blood. Peninsular are colonists from Spain. The next in the list of social classes has pure Spanish blood except, they were born in New Spain. Their parents are from Spain and they were born in New Spain. That class is called Criollo. One role that Criollo`s had was that they owned most land and mines. Another important role they had is related to the first one. They would sell a lot of land to the peninsular. The last role that they have is, they don’t have much power but they use slaves to take care of the land. The next on the list is called Mestizo. The roles that they use to be hard workers and now since Spain rules, they are not hard workers. Now they work a little and are not so wealthy. Also, they can never take part of the government. Mestizos are part Spanish and part native (Aztec). They also own a small not so wealthy shop were people don’t really go to. The last on the list of social classes are, Malatto. Malatto work in the Mestizo shops and are very poor. Later on their job will be as slaves. Their origin is, part Spanish and part African. They were very low in the class so, later on in history, all Mallatos become slaves.
