Hernan Cortes conquered the aztecs in many ways. The first way is he made alot of alliances. a woman named Malintzin helped Cortez make more alliances. Those alliances gave Cortez supplies and warriors. The second way is that the spainiards had advanced weapons and armor. The aztecs had also never seen horses in their lives which made them scared. the 3rd way is Cortez took advantage of their geogroaphy and location. He blocked caduseways bridges and water ways and this cut off the water which killed alot of aztecs because of starvation. and the last way is deseases. The spanish brought in small pocks. The spanish were all ready used to their own diseases. The aztecs imune systems were not ever exposed to the spainiards deases so They mostly dided from disease. Hope that helps :)
