Why were the Spanish able to defeat the Aztecs?
The Spanish had horses, guns, swords, and cannon while the Aztecs still used hand weapons and spears. They also had the backing from tribes who disliked the Aztecs, such as the Talaxcala. However the defeat of the Aztecs and the downfall of Tenochtitlan was mainly due to the ravages of disease. Most of the population of the Aztec capital, Tenochtitlan, were wiped out by the diseases the Spanish brought, to which the natives had no immunity.
How did the Aztecs stay safe?
The Aztecs were such great warriors that other tribes feared them. They had a huge supply of fierce, well-trained fighters and could intimidate other people. They prayed to their gods for protection from natural disasters, but mostly relied on luck for that. However, they were no real match for the guns, horses, and sicknesses that the Spanish brought when they landed. This was their downfall.
