The Spanish conquered both the Aztecs and Incas in various campaigns that began in 1519 and ended in 1572. The Aztec Empire was declared officially conquered in 1521 with the capture of Tenochtitlan and its emperor Cuauhtémoc, a feat carried out by a coalition led by Hernan Cortez. The Inca Empire, on the other hand, took decades to fall even after Francisco Pizarro embarked on the Battle of Cajamarca in 1532. Spain declared their people subdued by 1572.
