Spain began sending African slaves to South America, where they had founded colonies, in the 1500's, or more particularly, around 1510. Before this, the Spainards in South America used the Native Americans as slaves. However, African slaves were more used to rigerous farm work and heat, so they worked longer and harder than the Native Americans.
