The Spanish were able to conquer the Aztecs because the Aztecs were not very advanced in technology, where as the Spanish had technology like swords, armor, things that the Aztecs didn't have then.

Another answer: The spanish soldiers made effective use of their military technology against the aztecs

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 .

basicly Aztecs had tools made out of wood, bones, and steel.

Aztec's did not have iron and bronze to make their weapons

The Spanish were experienced horse riders, musketeers and cannoneers. They also carried many diseases that the Indians were not immune to.

The Spanish took advantage of both empires hospitality. and along with their superior firepower and European diseases, conquered the two great civilizations.

The fall of the Incas started with the kidnapping, ransom and murder of Chief Atahualpa.

The fall of the Aztecs began with the misbelief that Hernando Cortes was Quetzalcoatl, an Aztec god. Moctezuma II soon saw he was not and offered him gold and gifts to urge him to turn back. This only encouraged Cortes to continue his mission. Upon entering the city of Tenochtitlan, Cortes kidnapped Moctezuma II and murdered him in the house they had graciously given to him.

Back in the Aztec times (around 1500's and 1600's) priest's were like gods they were very important. One day one of the Aztec priest's had a vision of an eagle eating a serpent while sitting on a cactus. And one day someone saw a eagle eating a serpent on a cactus and that where they stayed!!
