Was Montezuma chrisan?

No. In fact, quite the contrary. The Spaniards were invading the Aztec kingdom of Tenochtitlan, which Montezuma was ruling. Believing he was Quetzalqoatl (possible missspell), their white, feathered-serpent god, they bestowed upon him gifts, but he wanted more. He defeated Montezuma's population of 5,000,000 with less than 1,000 soldiers.


What happened to the Aztecs after the Spanish arrived in Tenochtitlan?

The Aztecs thought that Cortés was a god-king, mistaken for Quetzalcoatl the light skinned, bearded God-King of the Aztecs - the 'Winged God - Feather Serpent 'so they treated him and his soldiers well. Soon Cortés thought the Aztecs and Montezuma would find out he was not a god, so he held Montezuma hostage and threatened to kill him if he did not do what he wished, though there are many different theories the way Montezuma died, the most popular one is that Montezuma was forced to anger his people or Cortés would kill him himself
