This fifth volume of the collection is devoted to the analysis of the different ways of founding towns and villages during the Bourbon reforms, when the important thing was to occupy the almost depopulated territory in the Internal Provinces and beyond, to the Mississippi River and Florida. The different urban models took advantage of all the accumulated experience from the Laws of the Indies, to the new military regulations and other ordinances that were applied in distant places like California, New Mexico, Texas and Louisiana; all these settlement companies had as their main interest to strengthen and root the settlers and their families, granting them land, tools and seeds, as well as animals for raising, expenses that the Crown assumed replacing the one caused by the military defenses that until the first half of the XVIII century had been the strategy forced.
