One reason for Don Hernando Cortes to be able conquer the Aztec empire was because of his military power. His army possessed superior weapons and armors. They also trained horses and dogs to their advantage. The Aztecs also confused Cortes as one of their gods and thus trusted him. In addition, Spaniards spread smallpox and other European diseases which killed and lessen the number of the Aztec people.
