Summary "COLECCIÓN DE DOCUMENTOS INÉDITOS RELATIVOS AL DESCUBRIMIENTO, CONQUISTA Y ORGANIZACIÓN DE LAS ANTIGUAS POSESIONES ESPAÑOLAS DE ULTRAMAR" is a historical account probably written in the late 19th century. It compiles unpublished documents concerning the discovery, conquest, and organization of Spain's overseas territories, detailing their legislative aspects. This work is significant as it delves into the complex legal framework that underpinned Spain's colonial endeavors, highlighting the legislative contributions from the Crown. The opening of this historical compilation sets the stage for an exploration of Spain's colonial legislation regarding its overseas possessions, starting with the acknowledgment of the glorious legal legacy Spain created for its colonies. The text introduces key figures and efforts from the 16th century, such as early efforts to compile laws governing the Indies, notably led by individuals like Antonio Maldonado and Diego de Encinas. It emphasizes the importance of understanding these laws not only for their practical implications but also as a means of grasping the spirit and intellectual pursuits of Spain during its imperial phase. Furthermore, it underlines the historical context of Spain's colonial legislation and governance, illustrating the foundational elements that formed the legal relationships between the Crown and its colonies.
