The author Eduardo Galeano relates the history of the pillage of Latin America from the historical data and what his research has discovered. One would have to conduct one's own research to properly evaluate the veracity of the detailed depiction of the pillage of Latin America as presented by Galeano. It is part of most everyone's history education that Columbus discovered the Americas and that Cortes conquered the Aztec civilization. That the Spanish conquistadors continued their invasions and the Portuguese oppressors took claim to modern-day Brazil is not disputable. That is all fact as much as anyone knows.
