Spanish conquest of Nicaragua
[edit]- ... that within a hundred years of the Spanish conquest of Nicaragua, the native population had been all but eliminated by a combination of newly-introduced disease, the slave trade, warfare and mistreatment? Source: "The first century after Spanish contact witnessed the demographic collapse of the native populations, resulting principally from exposure to Old World diseases and their exportation as slaves, but also from a combination of war and mistreatment."

This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and accepted AGF, the article is neutral and I detected no policy issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:40, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
