Why was Hernán Cortés interested in Mexico? Because he was interested in gold and silver.
Unfortunately for the Aztecs, they welcomed the Spanish with gifts made from just the precious metal that fired the conquering spirits of Cortés and his men. The gifts of gold motivated them to conquer the city of Tenochtitlan, from where the gold had come. The conquest came with the aid of Native tribes the Aztecs had conquered. The conquistadors melted down countless amazing Aztec cultural items from Montezuma's palace into bars of gold.
