The discovery of extraordinarily rich silver mines in New Spain brought enormous wealth to the Spanish crown, but little economic development. European nations vied for supremacy in global trade, with early Portuguese success in India and Asia being challenged first by the Spanish and then by the Dutch, who successfully imposed control of trade with the East in the mid seventeenth century"
