Perhaps you could drop a name of a country in the second stanza there...
Actually this can allude to many instances. I'm trying to be all-inclusive. I thought it was clear with words like West and destiny to manifest that I was speaking mainly of N. America, because that's where I live. But this also can allude to slave traders in Africa selling their own people to the Western world. It can also be in S. America, where there was a much more fleshed out relationship between colonizer and colonized. "Your beasts and machines bring terror to us" is supposed allude to that.

This isn't one act of conquering, but all acts of it. It is not only the Spanish subjugation of the Aztecs, but also the Aztecs' subjugation of other local people.
