true
True. Both the Aztecs and Incas were significantly weakened by diseases brought by Spanish explorers, such as smallpox. The explorers also had advanced weapons like guns and cannons that gave them a military advantage. These factors, along with other political and social factors, contributed to the downfall of both civilizations.
Spanish explorers were often mistaken for gods by tribes they encountered due to their advanced technology, weapons, and armor, which seemed otherworldly to the indigenous people. Additionally, the explorers often arrived during times of prophecy or legend, reinforcing the idea that they were supernatural beings. The Native Americans had no prior exposure to European explorers and their cultural beliefs contributed to the perception of the Spanish as divine beings.
Explorers typically took essential supplies such as food, water, navigation equipment, tools, clothing, and weapons on their expeditions. They also often brought along interpreters, guides, and sometimes scientists or specialists relevant to the expedition's objectives.
Explorers typically brought supplies such as food, water, tools, navigation instruments, maps, weapons for self-defense, clothing for various climates, and communication devices. They also often brought items for trade with indigenous people they encountered during their journeys.
European explorers traded goods such as beads, cloth, metal tools, and weapons with the First Nations in exchange for furs, food, and other resources. This trade allowed both groups to acquire goods that were not readily available in their own regions.
Jared Diamond argues that the Spanish advanced to steel swords because they had easier access to sources of iron ore and coal needed to produce steel. In contrast, the Inca lacked these natural resources and therefore continued to use bronze for tools and weapons. Additionally, the Spanish had more exposure to technologies and ideas from other cultures through trade and conquest, leading to technological advancements.
