The Aztecs initially did not oppose the European conquerors due to a combination of factors, including the belief that the Spanish might be divine or fulfill prophecies about gods returning. Additionally, the Aztec Empire was weakened by internal strife, such as political rivalries and the effects of smallpox, which decimated their population. The Spaniards also formed alliances with rival city-states that opposed the Aztecs, further undermining their strength and resistance. These factors contributed to the relatively swift conquest despite the Aztecs' initial military capabilities.

Many Aztec people were actually killed by the diseases that the European men brought over with them. Because the Aztecs had never been exposed to European diseases, they had no immunity to them. Many of the Aztecs contracted diseases like Smallpox from the European soldiers and died from illness as opposed to actually casualties of war.
Spain was involved with the Aztecs, specifically Hernando Cortes.
