He was a crazy spanish explorer who brought the end to the Aztecs.
What a crazy fool the Aztecs were as smart as were we are today in society.
Most websites that i've looked at don't give a lot of good information on this subject. However, there are two ways we can look at it. We can call Hernando Cortez a conqueror because he brought down the Aztec empire, which ultimately was an end to a culture. The other way we can look at him is like this: Hernando Cortez was not out to seek wealth, fame, and glory. Cortez' mission was to bring Christianity and claim this new land in the name of Spain. Let's look at the Aztec culture itself. Human sacrifices were almost too common to the Aztec. They captured warriors from other tribes and would sacrifice them to their gods. They would claim that the universe would be unbalanced if the sacrifices didn't take place. This culture practiced cannibalism, they tortured, ect. Pretty gruesome to say the least. So i view Hernando Cortez a liberator, because he brought down such an evil empire, brought Christianity, and "liberated" oppressed tribes.
A Spanish Explorer, named Hernando Cortes set foot in the Aztec empire in 1519. His expedition was to set across the land to find gold and bring the treasures to Spain. He conquered surrounding civilizations such as theTectonacs and Tlaxcalans. This may of been why he was able to defeat the Aztecs, as they were a very powerful empire. He also ruled parts of Mexico .

he was bor in Mexico
Cortez learned that the Aztecs treated cocoa beans as a form of currency, and that the Aztecs demanded taxes levied upon their subjugated tribes to be paid in the form of cocoa beans. One of Cortez's men, Hernando de Ovieda Valdez, reported that a rabbit could be purchased for four cocoa beans, a prostitute's services for ten, and a slave for 100. Having learned that in the new world money really did grow on trees, Cortez started to cultivate cocoa plantations. He eventually started plantations in Mexico, Trinidad, Haiti, and generally all over the Carribbean.
Cortez was welcomed to the aztec civilization first because they didn't know he would bring harm to them or kill the empire. Therefore they trusted him at first but then thats what cortez did.One more thing cortez and the aztec empire were very brudal to each other. so they may have been into a fight and cortez one its one of those
