The Spaniards' first impression of Mexico was marked by awe and fascination due to its rich culture, advanced civilizations, and vast resources. Upon arriving in the early 16th century, they were struck by the grand architecture of the Aztec cities, the sophistication of local customs, and the abundance of gold and silver. However, this initial admiration quickly turned to conquest as the Spaniards sought to exploit the land and its people, leading to significant cultural and social upheaval. Their encounters laid the groundwork for a complex relationship characterized by both admiration and domination.
