American History Lesson 8: Spanish Explorers

Question:  How might England have used the Black Legend to motivate and justify its colonization of North America?


They may have used it as an excuse to invade North America as a way to attack the Spaniards, since they had already fought in wars together.  England may have used the legend to make the people believe that they were doing a good thing and 'freeing' North America.
