Hernan Cortes conquered the Aztec Empire in present-day Mexico. The Aztecs were ruled by Emperor Moctezuma II at the time of the Spanish conquest in the early 16th century. Cortes' forces eventually overthrew the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan in 1521.
Hernan Cortes is not accurately matched with the area he explored or conquered. Under the command of Cortes, the Aztec Empire in Mexico was conquered, not the Inca Empire in South America. That was conquered by Francisco Pizarro.
Hernan Cortes and Francisco Pizarro conquered the native people they encountered through a combination of military superiority, strategic alliances with rival indigenous groups, exploiting internal divisions among the natives, and spreading diseases that devastated the local populations. They also utilized advanced weaponry, tactics, and superior leadership to achieve their conquests.
The civilizations in Mesoamerica were conquered by the Spanish conquistadors, led by figures such as Hernan Cortes and Pedro de Alvarado, in the 16th century. Through a combination of military force, alliances with indigenous groups, and disease, the Spanish were able to defeat powerful empires like the Aztecs and the Incas.
One of Hernando Cortes's discoveries was the city of Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztec Empire. He conquered the city in 1521 and claimed it for Spain.
Yes, Hernan Cortes' exploration of the Americas had a significant impact on indigenous people, particularly in the region of Mexico. Cortes and his troops conquered the Aztec Empire, leading to the downfall of the Aztec civilization and the loss of land, culture, and lives for indigenous populations. His arrival brought about a period of colonization, forced conversions to Christianity, and the spread of diseases that devastated indigenous communities.
