Hernán Cortés made a significant impact in history by leading the Spanish expedition that resulted in the fall of the Aztec Empire in 1521, which marked the beginning of Spanish colonization in Mexico. His conquest not only changed the political landscape of the region but also facilitated the widespread exchange of goods, culture, and ideas between the Old and New Worlds, known as the Columbian Exchange. Additionally, Cortés's actions set a precedent for future European colonization in the Americas, profoundly affecting indigenous populations and altering global trade dynamics. His legacy remains controversial, as it is associated with both the spread of European civilization and the devastation of native cultures.
Cortes was a killer
Americans don't remind "Mexicans of Cortes ". In history explorers are studied and Cortes is studied because he was one of the first Europeans to land in North American and meet the Native Americans. He was part of the history of the area. History is not always pretty or tied up neat and sweet. Man is cruel and the ways he has treated his fellow man need to be known. To ignore history is the repeat it.
Hernando Cortes made a difference because he conquered the Aztec.

The diseases and slavery that the European involvement in Central America, mostly headed by Cortes, had a huge impact on the United States, though indirectly. Due to Cortes'/European involvement this happened: 25 Million Native-American-Indians died from diseases and other reasons. Because of local (Spanish, not native American) protest (banned the use of native Americans as slaves), the Atlantic Slave Trade was indirectly started, the Africans believed to be tougher then the native Americans, and were able to 'take' more. You get the idea, we're talking late 1500s, so there wouldn't have been much actual (what we consider today) America yet. Those two things are the most prominent of the influences that Cortes had on the US history, however there is sure to be much more.
