A) European colonizers generally treated Indigenous peoples in the Americas **with cruelty and attempts to assimilate them.** This often involved violence, forced labor, and various forms of oppression, as well as attempts to convert Indigenous populations to Christianity and European ways of life.
B) The economic consequences for the Spanish-controlled colonies in the Americas during Napoleon's invasion of Spain included **the colonies were taxed more to cover the cost of Spain's conflict with Napoleon.** This situation led to increased economic strain on the colonies, as Spain sought to extract more resources to support its war efforts. Other options may also reflect aspects of the economic situation, but fundamentally, the burden of conflict often fell on the colonies through increased taxation.
