She was abducted from her mother by Hades. She longed to return from the underworld. When she was about to leave she was offered and ate a pomegranate (or some pomegranate seeds). This meant that the underworld was her home, so she could not return. In the end a compromise was reached, where she stayed half the year in the underworld and half the year with her mother.
Cortes took the leader for ransom.
He said no and killed moctezuma
no they didn't really fight in a war. When Cortes came on there land he betrayed them. He hid Montezuma. The people helped Montezuma and they made the Spanish leave.
the Aztecs gave it to him .
When Cortes got to Mexico, he tricked the Aztecs into giving him gold. They gave him plenty of gold because they hoped that they would leave. Then, Hernando Cortes heard about a new tribe coming called the Tlaxcalan. They left Tenochtitlan to capture them. They did. On their way back to Tenochtitlan, Velasquez was coming for Cortes to arrest him. They defeated them and used the remains of the armies to capture Montezuma (their King) and made him talk to the Aztecs. The Aztecs were angry and killed Montezuma. The conquistadors had a war with the Aztecs. The Aztecs lost the war and was defeated. Then Cortes left for California.

Hernando Cortes is ruthless in many ways. He is ruthless because he had no mercy on the Aztecs and his soldiers. For example when he first arrived the Aztecs treated him well because there leader Montezuma thought that the Europeans were gods. They gave him gifts such as gold. This only made Cortes more eager to find the source of the gold. This showed that he was ruthless because they thought the gold would make him happy and leave but he decided to come anyway and he showed little mercy on them. He was also ruthless to his soldiers because he ordered the ships to be sunk so his soldiers cannot turn back after Cortes decided to march inland. Cortes was then treated as a guest but he was driven out by Aztec nobles and half of his army was killed or wounded. From this Cortes decided to begin a siege of Tenochtitlan. He was ruthless to the Aztecs because he showed no mercy on them since he kept sending soldiers until most of there warriors were killed or captured. Also once Montezuma had died there was a new ruler who was the nephew of Montezuma, The new ruler named Cuauhtémoc defended the city, however Hernando Cortes still continued his ruthless ways. For instance after 3 months the city fell to Cortes. He then had Cuauhtémoc executed which is another reason why Cortes is ruthless. He could have justified his actions to conquer the Aztecs after they drove him out by killing half of his men or wounding them. Clearly Hernando Cortes was ruthless in many ways.
