Did Hernando de Soto take over the Aztecs?

=No, but Hernando Cortes did. The Aztecs believed in a god called Quetzalcoatl, who would come back to them from beyond the sea. They thought of him having pale skin and dark hair. When Cortes came in a ship and had fair skin and dark hair, they thought he was Quetzalcoatl, and immediately bowed down to him. This and Cortes' horses and weapons helped him conquer the Aztecs.=
