Hernán Cortés crushed the Aztec Empire and claimed it for Spain in the early 16th century. His expedition, which began in 1519, culminated in the fall of Tenochtitlán in 1521, largely due to a combination of military strategy, alliances with local tribes, and the spread of diseases such as smallpox. This conquest led to the establishment of Spanish colonial rule in Mexico.
