Similar to how "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman" provided a unique perspective on the trials and triumphs of Colorado Springs and the expansion of the American West in the 1990s, "Pedraza in the New World" aims to be a captivating window into the Spanish expansion into the "New World." We witness the annihilation of Maya and Aztec cultures, alongside the rise of a people destined for global dominance.

Moreover, the narrative unveils the decline of the "Old World" through the eyes of the formidable Ines de Pedraza, the matriarch of the Pedraza family. Ines, a descendant of powerful European monarchies in Spain, France, and Portugal, emerges as a co-conspirator and leader in the Revolt of the Comuneros (Guerra de las Comunidades de Castilla, "War of the Communities of Castile"), a civil war against King Charles I of Castile, which proves to be a perilous move for the family.
