When Cortes appears at the Aztecs empire, they believe that he is the god, Quetzalcoatl but he is truly an enemy that is out to destroy the Aztec Empire. Anyway, the Aztecs welcome the Spanish with food, and with a place to stay that lines the entire city giving an easy way to defeat the Aztecs.

The capital city of the Aztecs was Tenochtitlan, captured by the Spanish under Cortes.
The Spanish had superior weapons. Guns and cannons trump arrows and spears. Horses gave them advantages as well. They had armor that protected them against most of what the Aztecs and Incas could throw at them. In addition, many Aztecs thought that the Spanish looked like their gods. And the Spanish unknowingly brought smallpox with them that the Aztecs and Incas had no natural immunity for.
The Aztecs lived in what is now modern-day Mexico, particularly in the area around the capital city of Tenochtitlan, which is present-day Mexico City.
