While the Spanish did have better weapons and horses, there were two other main things that allowed them to conquer the central American and south American civilizations. For the Aztecs, one major thing that permitted them to be conquered was that they believed that Hernando Cortes was one of their gods returning to them, and so they did not challenge him until it was too late. For all of the civilizations, the main thing that destroyed them was European diseases. The Central and South American civilizations had never been introduced to the diseases that were common in Europe and therefore, had no antibodies or cures for them. Millions of the Native people were killed of because of these diseases and it gave the Spanish a very large advantage.

How and why did the Spanish conquer the Aztec and Inca Empires?
The Spanish conquest of the Aztec and Inca Empires was a complex process that began in the early 1500s and lasted for several decades. It was a combination of superior military forces and tactics, religious zeal, and the desire for wealth and power that enabled the Spanish to eventually conquer and colonize these two great empires. The Spanish were motivated to conquer the Aztec and Inca Empires for a variety of reasons, including religious, political, and economic. First, the Spanish were motivated by religious reasons. They wanted to spread their Christian faith and convert the natives to Catholicism. The Catholic Church played a major role in the conquest, providing missionaries to the conquered lands and encouraging the Spanish to spread their faith. Second, the Spanish were motivated by political and economic reasons. They wanted to expand their empire and gain wealth and power. The Aztecs and Incas had great wealth, both in terms of land and resources, and the Spanish sought to gain control of this wealth. Additionally, the Spanish wanted to gain control of the new lands and the people living in them, in order to gain more political power. The Spanish had a great advantage when it came to military technology and tactics. They had superior weapons, such as guns and cannons, as well as better trained and organized military forces. The Spanish were able to use these advantages to their advantage on the battlefield, routing and defeating the native forces. Additionally, the Spanish had a better understanding of siege warfare and were able to use this knowledge to besiege and capture cities and towns with relative ease. Finally, the Spanish had an advantage in terms of disease. The Spanish brought with them a variety of diseases, such as smallpox, that the natives had no immunity to. This allowed the Spanish to quickly decimate the native population, making it easier for them to gain control of the land. In conclusion, the Spanish conquest of the Aztec and Inca Empires was a complex process that was motivated by a combination of religious, political, economic, military, and biological factors. The Spanish had superior military forces and tactics, religious zeal, and the desire for wealth and power that enabled them to eventually conquer and colonize these two great empires.
