How Columbus dealt with Arawak People [Part 4] Millionwar |
Legend has it that at an invitation, someone asked Columbus which arrow you shot after finding your way to Asia. If you had not inquired, someone else would have done it. Columbus then ordered some eggs and asked the audience to show them upright on the armor table. People tried hard but failed, the eggs would roll in one direction or another every time. Columbus then picked up an egg and smashed one side of it against the table. Columbus then easily placed it on the table. Columbus sent a message to the audience that when a task is done, it seems easy to everyone, but the real credit for success should go to the one who did it first. Now friends, this incident may be a legend, a fictional story, but Columbus must have impressed the Space rulers once again with his words. He demanded from the rulers that a large force be sent with him to the islands of this new world or to the new route to Asia so that they could bring as much gold from their discovered territories and deposit it in Spain with the Queen and the King. Near He also lured the Spanish government into enslavement and said that the people there would be very good slaves if they were brought to Spain. The Spanish rulers were so impressed by Columbus' words that they handed over a fleet of seventeen ships to Columbus. In addition to the 1,300 crew members on the ships, there were also a number of professional soldiers, soldiers who had a large quantity of swords, guns and ammunition this time. They were accompanied by trained bloodhounds. This whole force greatly increased Columbus' strength compared to the previous voyage. Because on the first trip you will remember that he had only ninety, ninety people. This time around 2,000 troops were with him. It was such a force that it could easily crush the entire population of Hispaniola. Columbus took the fleet as fast as he could to Hispaniola, but when he landed he was shocked. Thirty-nine people who had been left behind at Columbus Fort Navidad had been killed. The point is that after Columbus left for Spain, they formed gangs in search of gold. These people kidnapped women and children and then sexually abused them, raped them and forced them to work. The result was that one day the locals lost patience and they stormed and killed the Europeans and set the fort on fire. Columbus lost his temper when he saw the fate of his comrades. He ordered his accompanying soldiers to search for gold and enslave the local population. So these people now spread to the island of Hispaniola and began to plunder the villages. But by then it had become known in Hispaniola that strangers were not good people, but had come to enslave them and rob them of gold. Now the Native Americans could not compete with the Special Forces. So most of them fled their villages. That is why the Spanish invaders found most of the villages and the houses in them empty. Did the Spanish invaders find a single gold nugget there, despite the fact that people could be found there? In 1995, when Columbus had been touring the West Indies for almost two and a half years, he was now troubled by his continued failure. Because gold was not available, he decided to make up for the lack of gold with slaves. So in 1495 he mustered all his forces and invaded various villages to enslave the people of Hispaniola. Fifteen hundred men, women and children were captured and chained in fences like animals. Soldiers and dogs were deployed to protect them. Five hundred of these slaves, who looked healthier and stronger, were sent to Spain. About 200 of these slaves, Native Americans, died of various diseases during the voyage. The rest, which survived and reached Spain, were sold in the markets. But even these sellers of poor Native Americans could not stand the climate of Europe. Because they hadn't grown up here for centuries and thousands of years, they were all killed one by one. Columbus soon realized that it was futile to enslave Native Americans to Europe, so he would have to find gold anyway. So he began to take direct labor from the local population. In Haiti, Columbus ordered all men fourteen years of age or older to find a certain amount of gold every three months. When they brought gold, they were given a copper token to hang around their necks. The person who did not have the token around his neck had his hands cut off and blood was allowed to flow until the person died. Then the oppression began to increase. Thousands of locals were captured and forcibly taken to the mountains and forced to dig each mountain several times from top to bottom. People who washed the soil and extracted gold had to stand in the water all the time, which broke their backs. At least one-third of the people died of starvation and disease in their ears. Men were sent to work in distant mines, on mines. While his wives used to cultivate it in Spain. And the Europeans made friends with local men and women so hard that an entire generation became infertile. At first, their babies were no longer born, and even if they did, mothers could not breastfeed them. Because of hunger and disease, their ability to breastfeed their children was declining. Columbus and his fellow Spaniards were so engrossed in their search for gold that they were unwilling to give their mothers time to take care of their children. Thousands of children starved to death. Some mothers, in a state of helplessness, drowned their children and killed themselves, because they could not see them dying sobbing. Sitting Thus, in a short time, this land, which was very glorious and fertile, was fertile and became empty of human beings.
How Columbus dealt with Arawak People
A Spanish writer had the opportunity to visit the dark city of these Spanish invaders shortly after Columbus.
He writes that he has seen such inhuman atrocities with his own eyes that he is trembling from head to toe while writing them.
Over time, the atrocities of the European invaders increased rather than decreased. The Spaniards had become so comfortable that they considered it against their dignity to walk. So they used NATO Americans as animals for their ride. If they had been in a hurry to get somewhere, they would have rode on the backs of NATO Americans. Or they would ride a rope-like swing and two Native Americans would pick them up and walk back and forth. I also had some other slaves who would shade with leaves and blow the duck's wings to blow up these Spanish invaders. The Spanish invaders, who had now become their masters, did not value the blood and honor of Native Americans. Those who had become explorers had become cruel beasts. So cruel that some soldiers would only seize the locals to check their knives and swords and remove the flesh from their bodies.
Then watch the spectacle of their anguish. It was a normal pastime for them.
Once upon a time, Spanish soldiers snatched parrots from two Native American boys and beheaded these innocent boys. Just for Art. Not only was Hispaniola being played, but other islands in the West Indies were also affected. Even there, people were falling victim to massacres, hunger and disease. In Cuba alone, 7,000 children died in three months. The Native Americans who were alive were fed up with this humiliating behavior, the massacre and the forced labor. They also tried to fight the Europeans but lost each time. They left their areas and took refuge in the mountains and forests. Spanish soldiers would chase after them in the woods with their dogs and shoot them or catch them and leave their bloodhounds on them. Who would snatch the herbs of these innocents and kill them. When the locals did not have a bus against this oppression, they decided to use a fruit as a last resort. The name of this fruit was cassava in the local language. This fruit saved millions of Native Americans from Europeans. My Curious Fellows, how about that?
Native Americans also ate cassava and extracted poison from some of its varieties. So the Native Americans began to extract poison from its poisonous species. They usually used this poison to hunt animals with their arrows. But this time he decided to use the poison on himself. People of Arawak race started mass suicides with cassava poison. He even used this poison to save his infants from the tyranny of Columbus and his Spanish companions forever. But obviously not all people could have committed suicide. So many people managed to escape and save their lives on other islands. Among them was Hatway, the chief of Hispaniola.
History of America | What Columbus did to Arawak People
He rescued some of his tribesmen and brought them to Cuba. He also had some gold.
Arriving at the safe place, Hathaway put the gold in front of everyone and said that this is what is killing us. He then threw the gold into the river to save his tribe from the greed and oppression of the Spanish. He must have understood Khus Kam where he must have understood Khus Kam Jahan Pak.
Pure. But even this attempt did not work. When the Spanish invaders turned on Cuba, they found the Hatuay tribe. The attackers killed more than half of his tribesmen. The rest of the children who started enslaving them began to use them. They did not shoot or enslave their leader, Hatway. Instead, they tied it to a pile of dry wood in front of everyone and set it on fire. But before he died, some words were uttered that embarrassed European clergy for centuries. It is said that when Hathaway was being tied to a wooden pillar to burn, a priest told him to feel Christ close to his heart so that your soul would enter heaven instead of hell. Hathaway replied, "If heaven is the place where Christians like you go, I would love to go to hell. So friends, countless people have been killed by gold-hungry people." If there was one person responsible for all this carnage and destruction, it was Christopher Columbus, the leader of this greedy team. Despite all his greed and cruelty, he could not send as much gold to Spain as he had promised. Instead of sleeping, his complaints were pouring in at the royal court. The stories of the rapid decline of the local population and its oppression melted the hearts of many in Spain. Columbus's fall was about to begin, and his two brothers played a key role. Columbus also brought his two brothers to Hispaniola. When Columbus returned to Spain for the second time in 1496, he appointed his brothers in charge of the island. The two brothers made Columbus' cruel system even more dangerous. Columbus introduced the system that required Native American chiefs to extract gold from the mountains under his supervision. Extract gold from the mountains under your supervision. But in Columbus's absence, his brothers ended Columbus's policy by directly exploiting NATO Americans and awarding contracts to people of their choice. But the rest of the Spanish settlers, those who had been resettled in the New World, were not favored, so they and the local tribal chiefs became angry. The Spanish settlers were also angry that they believed in the golden stories of Columbus. However, after arriving in Hespaniula, they did not find any gold there. They revolted against Columbus and his brothers and filed a lawsuit against Columbus at the Spanish royal court.
Hispaniola was sent by the court to the Chief Justice of Spain for investigation. Columbus, meanwhile, set foot on South American soil where Venezuela is today. Here, too, he was looking for gold like crazy. Because he still thought that he had explored Asia and China from the other side, as Marco Polo wrote in his travelogues that if there was gold, there would be gold, although there was clear evidence that he had visited these areas. Could not discover what was written in the travelogues. But he was not ready to understand it or maybe he was not capable of it. So the story is that he did not find gold in Venezuela and he returned empty handed Hispanola. This time his day of reckoning was waiting for him here. The Spanish judge, Hespaniola, had arrived and had heard complaints from Spanish settlers and Native Americans against Columbus, and he had heard the case against Columbus and ruled in his favor. He then chained Columbus and his two brothers and sent the three prisoners to Spain in October 1500. But Columbus was a very clever man with a lot of convincing power. So he wrote a letter to the rulers of Spain during his return journey. Although the letter was a desperate effort, it convinced the king and queen. The letter said that although he had not yet found the gold, he had come very close to it. After reading the letter, the king and queen ordered his release and met him in Granada in December 1500.
During the meeting, Columbus assured him that if he was allowed to visit the island once more, he would return in search of gold. So the king and queen obeyed him again and gave him permission and resources to travel for the last time. Columbus was allowed to travel this time, but has now been removed as governor of the newly discovered lands. Now he was returning, not as a governor, but as an ordinary explorer. In 1520 Columbus set out on his fourth and final voyage. He was so deceived by Asia that he expected to meet the Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama there, even though Vasco da Gama had discovered a route to Asia from under Africa. Which, of course, was not the case with Columbus thousands of miles away. On his last voyage, Columbus traveled to Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua in search of gold. But he did not find gold. He was once stranded in the Jamaican port of Santa Gloria with fifty of his companions. He had run out of food and could not find a way back. He stopped his ship on the shore and sent some of his companions in a boat to find a way to Hispaniola. After his departure, a difficult period began for Columbus. He had run out of food and the locals were not ready to give it to him. He called the Native American leaders and threatened them. He said God was angry that the locals were slow to deliver food to his followers. So he has decided to teach them a lesson through famine and disease. He also said that God would first show a clear sign in heaven regarding the punishment to be meted out to Native Americans. So Columbus told the chiefs to look carefully at the moon in the sky that night. Because the moon that night ... It will look red and burning now. Obviously, no torment was about to descend on the Native Americans, but there was so much truth in Columbus's words that he knew what was going on in the red and burning moon. He knew from a European calendar that the stars and the moon were written in terms of the sun, that after three days there would be a full lunar eclipse on the night of February 29, 154. So Columbus, believing in this table or calendar, confidently posed a universal threat to Native Americans. Then it happened that this prediction was fulfilled and on the night of February 29, the moon really started eclipsing. When the Native Americans saw the lunar eclipse, they became convinced of Columbus' truth and, out of fear, began to provide Columbus and his companions with food and drink. Columbus had to spend almost a year in Jamaica. Meanwhile, his companions in the boat managed to reach Hispaniola. However, help arrived from Hispaniola, albeit belatedly, and Columbus escaped from Jamaica to Hispaniola. But his fourth and final journey had now failed, and perhaps the most disappointing. So, longing to reach Japan and China, a desperate Columbus, who was now old and ill, went back to Sappin and remained there until his death in 1566. Columbus, who killed millions of innocent Native Americans, lived in luxury until the very end. Because, according to the queen's promise, she would get one-tenth of the little gold that came from the new world. But he remained deceived until his death that he had found a new way to Asia. My Curious Fellow Columbus dies in despair of Asia's deception and lack of gold. ۔ But other people were not deceived. In 151, an Italian explorer, Joe Amerigo Vespucci, also explored the same new world discovered by Columbus. He went from north to south, down to where the forests of Brazil and the Amazon are today. He was a more intelligent man than Columbus. It did not take long for him to realize that this was not a path to Asia or a small island, but a new world. This new world was named America after the same Amerigo, the door opened by Dosto Columbus to the destruction of Native Americans. It did not stop with his death. Within twenty-one years of Columbus' arrival, Hispaniola was completely devoid of human existence. The nearly eight million people on the island, whom Columbus thought were Indians, were now wiped out by the bloodshed, disease, and despair of the Spanish invaders. According to David Steinard, author of the American Holocaust, the devastation on Hispaniola was fifty times greater than the devastation on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. The massacre on the other islands was another. Friends, this is the island of Hispaniola, in whose land are buried the millions of innocents who were killed by Columbus and the Spanish invaders. These people were replaced by black Africans because they did not die of diseases from Europe like the Arawak people, but they had immunity from European diseases or the ability to fight them. So it is the descendants of the same slaves and white settlers and the common descendants who live here today. So the settlement of blacks in place of Native Americans ushered in a new era of slavery in the United States.
But the Arawak people who were killed and destroyed by Columbus
They are not completely gone.
Some escaped from other islands in the West Indies and moved downstream to South America.
Today, they live in Venezuela, Guyana, and Surrey.
Columbus' name was once a symbol of terror for them
So the name Columbus is a symbol of hatred for the generations that survive today. Columbus's campaign to build a great Christian empire continued after his death. The Spanish Empire had taken over most of the West Indies and was now looking to South America, where the Aztec Empire was located. These friends were the Native American state that really had gold and countless other treasures. But the people of this empire were not as weak as the Arawak race of the West Indies, but the most powerful people in the new world, and this empire was the strongest empire there. The people here competed with him in Spanish. How did they do this competition and what was the result? Which Aztec deity did they take too long to recognize?
