I am sure I wasn't the only thirteen year old in jr. high who began to question how a few hundred Spaniards (sometimes the story might be British, Portuguese, French, etc.) could cross an ocean in a tiny wooden boat and conquer and kill "millions". Often times it was as the author explains in this video and not simply because they were "bloodthirsty" Europeans lusting for Gold.
