Yes, the Spanish conquistadors, led by Hernán Cortés, defeated the Aztec Empire in the early 16th century. The conquest culminated in 1521 when Cortés captured Tenochtitlán, the Aztec capital, after a series of battles, alliances with rival indigenous groups, and the spread of diseases that weakened the Aztec population. This marked the beginning of Spanish colonial rule in Mexico.
