True. The Spanish conquistadors, led by Hernán Cortés, possessed advanced weaponry, including steel swords and firearms like cannons, which the Aztecs had never encountered before. This technological advantage, along with superior military tactics and the spread of diseases to which the Aztecs had no immunity, significantly contributed to the difficulties the Aztecs faced in resisting the Spanish conquest.

The Aztecs initially viewed the Spanish as powerful and god-like beings due to their advanced technology and weaponry. However, as the Spanish began to conquer and colonize their land, the Aztecs came to see them as ruthless invaders and oppressors.

The Spanish were able to conquer the Aztecs because the Aztecs were not very advanced in technology, where as the Spanish had technology like swords, armor, things that the Aztecs didn't have then. So the Spanish took advantage of this and terrorized the Aztecs completely, killing thousands, and taking remainders as slaves. Another answer: The spanish soldiers made effective use of their military technology against the aztecs
The Spanish conquest of the Aztecs was due to the fact that the Aztecs at first did not realize that the Spanish were going to try to conquer them. Even when they did, the Spaniards had superior weapons and the Aztecs were unable to defeat them.
The only significant disadvantage the Spanish conquistadors faced was the fact that they didn't know the land/geography as well as the Aztecs did. The Aztecs faced far more graver disadvantages like disease, lack of advanced weaponry, etc.
The Spanish came to central America and delivered diseases such as Smallpox, Measles and Influenza to the Aztecs. The Aztecs, unlike the Spanish, were definitely not immune to the diseases and caught them, making them weak and forcing them to lose the battle between them. Although the Aztecs captured and sacrificed many of the Spanish, the Spanish resulted in taking over the capital city of Tenochtitlan and defeating all the Aztecs. The Spanish at one point tried to spread the Catholic religion throughout Mexico, forcing Aztecs to learn more about God and the Bible. If children didn't learn their lesson about it, they were punished. They were forced to stop worshiping their gods and celebrating their festivals. They were also made to work in Spanish mines or on estates.
The Maya settled before there were aztecs and the aztecs were more like warriors.
