BACKGROUND.

In October of 1492, Columbus landed in the New World. Nobody Knew it
and the Bible didn´t say anything about it. The new kingdom of Spain
had a big challenge, conquest and colonize the new terrains. 
The Spanish, speciality Andalusian, Galician, Estremadurian and 
Castilians, started his exploration and conquested more terrains than
Roma ( the biggest empire known until the Renassience ) in all his
history. Most of this conquest take part of first half of the XVI 
century, with Charles I ( V of Germany ) as King. When Portuguese,
English, French and Dutch started the colonize of the Americas, Spain
had conquested the main part. A handful of brave men went to strange
lands to carry the Spanish culture, religion and laws, and to take all
the gold they could carry on his pockets, of course!. The "hueste
indiana" was formed by a Captain or Conquistador, with royal licence,
and a few soldiers, they conquested the new terrains and organized it.
This conquests came to the formation of the largest empire of the 
history, the Spanish empire of Philip II.
These conquests has bad fame because the unfair "Black Legend". It´s
true that Spanish killed a lot of Indians but they mixed with natives
which conserved a important part of Indian culture. On the contrary of 
other conquest as the North which English and Northamericans totality
destroyed the Indian cultures.

SPAMERIC.MP
I made this map of all Hispanic America, from Patagonia to  USA,
Texas, Colorado, Florida or Lousiana. Used it if you want and can add all 
Northamerica, erase my initials and the indalo ( the symbol of the
left is from my land, Almería ) but don´t erase my initials near of 
Pascua island.
California aren´t showed because Spanish started his exploration 
in XVII and XVIII centruries, out of my scenario.
NOTES AND COMMENTS.

* There are a lot of Discover age scenarios but everyone start with 
all European countries landed in America or with a tiny Spanish empire,
I made this scenario thinking in the XVI century, when only Spain
was conquesting America.
* I have Spanish version of Civilization2,so when I installed the
Fantastic Worlds CD made a mix betwen English and Spanish, and I
had to take files as Game.txt or Pedia.txt from other scenarios,
Don´t worry everyone are in English.
* I´d be very happy if somebody send me the English files:
Advice.txt, City.txt, and Pedia.txt.
* Sorry, my English is bad.

I hope the scenario like you and send your comments to:
