Hernán Cortés took significant risks by leading an expedition to Mexico in 1519, defying orders from the Spanish governor and ultimately seeking personal glory and wealth. He persisted in the face of overwhelming odds, including hostile indigenous populations and the challenges of unfamiliar territory. His strategic alliances with certain tribes and his determination to conquer the Aztec Empire ultimately led to his success, but also exposed him to the dangers of rebellion and the consequences of his actions.
