Hernán Cortés conquered the Aztec Empire, which was ruled by Emperor Montezuma II at the time of the Spanish expedition. The conquest, which began in 1519, involved strategic alliances with various indigenous tribes that were rivals of the Aztecs, as well as military engagements. The fall of Tenochtitlán in 1521 marked the end of Aztec dominance and the establishment of Spanish rule in Mexico.
