The following questions refer to the excerpt below.
"The [Pueblo] uprising The 1680 uprising was no isolated event.The seventeenth-century history of modern New Mexico and northern Mexico is punctuated by unrest and rebellion.Many of the region's people had been conquered and none liked their situation,but they understood that though they greatly outnumbered the Spaniards,their foes were ruthless,organized,and determined.The Spanish possessed firearms and steel weapons superior to anything the Natives could muster.But despite all the odds against successful resistance,Spanish records show instance upon instance of plans and outbreaks among American Indians who supposedly had been "reduced" to Christianity and Spanish ways… If the purpose of the rebellion was simply to drive out Spanish ways,it failed,because the Spaniards came back and remained until Mexican independence in 1821.The Spanish were followed by two successor republics,Mexico and,ultimately,the United States.There could be no complete return to how Pueblo people had lived prior to the Spanish conquest.But if the rebels' purpose was to reassert their own ways in a new setting,their rebellion succeeded,because Acoma and places like it survive,on terms that their people set for themselves."
