The conquest of New Spain came about because the Spanish had horses and guns and because their potential enemies were divided. In many areas in the Caribbean, no tribe held a large area so the Spanish could use overwhelming force. Only two areas existed with the potential to oppose the Spanish. They were the Aztec Empire of Mexico and the Inca Empire of Peru. With the Aztec Empire, the Spanish gained the support of almost all of the peoples subjected by the Aztecs. Thus, the small Spanish Army could direct a large army and only use its superior fire power against the most powerful part of the Aztec Army. That way it defeated the Aztecs. The Inca Empire had just been involved in a civil war. The Spanish enlisted the losers to their side. Thus, again it was a matter of divide and conquer. In every situation, the Spanish gradually exerted their authority slowly increasing their power over the local population.
