The Spanish, led by Hernán Cortés, captured the Aztec emperor Montezuma II in 1519 during their conquest of the Aztec Empire. They initially took him hostage in an attempt to control the Aztecs and exploit their wealth. Montezuma was later killed during a skirmish between the Spanish and the Aztecs in 1520, though accounts of his death vary, with some suggesting he was killed by his own people who turned against him. His capture and death marked a significant turning point in the Spanish conquest of Mexico.
