Explanation:

The Spanish sought silver and gold and adapted Natives to their economic system, the French aimed to find resources for trade, and the British wanted deerskins and other items to trade. All these are economic - related motives. There is no indication of Spanish support for French land - claims. The Spanish had a significant impact on Native Americans through conversion and establishment of a colonial system. Only the Spanish wanted to convert Native Americans to Catholicism, not all three.

Answer:

C. The Spanish, French, and British all had economic interests in the Southeast.
