Spanish North America: El Morro and the Nootka Crisis
Listen now
Description
On today’s episode, the History Guy tells two stories of Spanish North America. Before the Dutch, English, or French had sent colonists across the Atlantic, Spain was conquering kingdoms and empires in Mexico and Peru. But they laid claim to lands far afield, and left their mark - both literally, at the El Morro site in New Mexico, and in history, when imperial posturing on a small island near Vancouver nearly sent Europe to war.
