Gold,jewelry,and most of all...their religion.They also killed most of them off for not worshiping God.Eventually this started a war.
The Spanish conquered the Aztecs to take their vast amount of gold, precious metals, and jewels.
beceause the aztecs thought the spanish was there god "the fetherd serpent" and let the spanish leader take over
The Spanish had guns and the Aztecs did not.
the spanish thought of the aztecs as slaves
The Aztecs had made many enemies because they would send out raiding parties to take prisoners for sacrifices. These rival tribes of the Aztecs would later help the Spanish conquistadors take out the Aztecs.

Guns horses and better technoligy
The Aztecs weren't as advanced as the conquistadors. The Aztecs had cotton shields and used clubs studded with sharp obsidian rock. Meanwhile, the Spanish had horses the Aztecs had never even seen a horse before in their lives. The Spanish also had gunpowder and metal armor and their guns could easily take out an Aztec jaguar warrior. The Aztecs were also destroyed by the new diseases that where brought over by the Spanish conquistadors. The Aztecs had almost no allies because the other tribes joined the Spanish in taking out the Aztecs.
Yes the Aztecs welcomed the spanish with gifts
the Spanish gave small pox to the Aztecs.
The technology of the Spanish greatly exceeded the Aztecs. The Spanish were shooting bullets, the Aztecs were throwing stones, no contest.
The Aztecs had gold.
They both have lived on Mexican land. The Aztecs before the Spanish wiped them out and then the Spanish lived there after they had wiped out the Aztecs lol
