It was the Spaniards under Hernando Cortes who conquered the Aztecs. The Aztecs surrendered to the Spanish in 1521. People who survived the invasion either went to slavery or were killed by European diseases like smallpox.

It started in 1519 with Hernán Cortés. Cortés landed in Yucatán with around 630 men (most armed with only a sword and shield). He was not the commander, but he stole boats and set sail without permission.
