Spain - Hernan Cortez
The Spanish explorers, led by Hernan Cortes arrived at Tenochtitlán, the city of the enemies of the Aztecin 1519. They allied and attacked the Aztecs in 1520. Hernan Cortes and his Spanish party were sent from Cuba. Cortes had convinced the Spanish monarchy that the Aztecs held vast amounts of easily accessible gold and that he would bring it for the King in return for being allowed to become governor of any new government in the region. Although only a small group, Cortes played the Native tribes against one-another and brought disease which crippled the local populations. Cortes eventually arrived in the capital to meet Montezuma, the leader of the Aztecs, when he and his allies attacked the leader and captured the city.
