They composed the rebellion by the utilization of their one of a kind bunch letters in order, which the Spanish didn't perceive as letters. At the point when the rebellion was over, Spain possessed just Tucson, Albuquerque, Santa Fe, a couple silver mines, and whatever their firearms were pointed at for the occasion. The Spanish emissary in Mexico City continued sending corrective powers into the Arizona region until 1697, in the interim sending optomistic reports back to Spain. He challenged not concede that he'd lost such a great amount of area to negligible Heathen Savages; that would have earned him a brisk come back to Spain and a speedier visit to the basements of the Spanish Inquisition. Rather he asserted that he'd put down the resistance and the area was still under his tenet - just not exceptionally beneficial, and in this way not sending much cash to the treasury. Succeeding emissaries did minimal more than proceed with this well mannered fiction, building up a couple of missions and the battalion of Tubac in 1752 to secure pioneers - of whom there were relatively few. The Pueblos couldn't have cared less, since by far most of the area was theirs truth be told. The remainder of the Spanish mines and missions in Arizona were relinquished in the repercussions of the war over Texas.

As such, Spain lost the Arizona domain - to the Pueblo Indians - much sooner than Mexico was an autonomous nation. Mexico itself never really claimed Arizona or New Mexico.
