leon Cortes
He conquered the Aztec empire!
Cortes
Probably Cortes, because he conquered the Aztec Empire and Cartier founded land.
Cortes wanted to be more famous than his father, and to get there he decided to explore.
His most famous voyage of all time is when he went to Mexico looking for precious gold instead finding the Aztec people and conquering them.
Hernando De Cortes was most known for finding Mexico and conquering the Aztec empire.
He founded Mexico and conquered the Aztecs. Hope that helps!
I think he did it so he could be famous expoler.
