Charles V was the king of Spain during the time the Spaniards, led by H. Cortes, invaded the Aztec empire and killed roughly 90% of their population within 50 years of the Spanish arrival through both direct and indirect means (i.e. weaponry and disease they brought). The survivors were enslaved and made to mine for more gold and precious metals than what they already possessed, which was an immense amount...scumbags.
