Spain was able to control such a large area having outposts of colonial authority in major cities such as Mexico City, Lima, and Buenos Aires. The social structure in Latin America was very rigid. Position in society was based on birth. People born in Spain called peninsulares had the most power. Peninsulares had the highest government and Church jobs. The colonies were managed by a representative of the Spanish king called the viceroy and had a big impact on the colonies. The economy was mainly based on mining of precious metals. Mining and farming was done by mulattos, enslaved Africans, and natives. Latin Americans, particularly the creoles, grew frustrated with having little control in their government.
