Cortes and his Spanish soldiers were able to conquer Tenochtitlan and the Aztec Empire due to a combination of superior weaponry, strategic alliances with discontented indigenous groups, and the impact of diseases like smallpox that decimated the native population. The Spanish had advanced military technology, such as guns and steel swords, which gave them a tactical advantage. Additionally, Cortes leveraged local rivalries, enlisting tribes who resented Aztec rule to bolster his forces. The combination of these factors, along with the psychological impact of the Spanish presence, ultimately led to the fall of the Aztec Empire.

Hernán Cortés and his Spanish conquistadors were able to defeat the powerful Aztec Empire through a combination of military strategy, alliances, and exploitation of internal divisions. Cortés formed alliances with discontented indigenous groups who resented Aztec rule, such as the Tlaxcalans, which significantly bolstered his forces. Additionally, the introduction of European diseases like smallpox devastated the Aztec population, weakening their resistance. Finally, Cortés's superior weaponry and tactics allowed him to conquer Tenochtitlán, the Aztec capital, leading to the empire's collapse.
