During Hernando Cortés's voyage in 1519, he led an expedition from Spain to Mexico, where he encountered the Aztec Empire. Cortés and his men initially formed alliances with local tribes who were rivaling the Aztecs. He ultimately captured the Aztec emperor Moctezuma II and laid siege to the capital city of Tenochtitlán. This expedition resulted in the fall of the Aztec Empire and the establishment of Spanish colonial rule in Mexico.
