Well that explains why all Spanish colonies end up corrupt. They were all "corrupted" early on that colonization period.
Maybe you need to read something about Spanish colonisation.
Can you recommend something ? I'm not very literate on the subject myself
The primary Spanish sources are pretty explicit about their behaviour, other than the lies about the nature of the natives. They tended to keep meticulous records.
Read about their 300+ years colonization of the Philippines.
