      The first major American civilisation to fall to the Spanish was that of the Aztecs. The Aztec Empire was relatively new - they were from approximately the fourteenth century.

      cortes was fairly well educated and had family connections. His health improved and he trained as a soldier. 
  • Cortés was fairly well educated and had family connections, so when he arrived in Hispaniola in 1503 he soon found work as a notary and was given a plot of land and a number of natives to work it for him. His health improved and he trained as a soldier, and took part in the subjugation of those parts of Hispaniola that had held out against the Spanish. He became known as a good leader, an intelligent administrator, and a ruthless fighter. It was these traits that made Diego Velázquez select him for his expedition to Cuba.

      The Spanish arrived in 1519, more than 300,000 people were living in Tenochtitlan, Mexico.
  • In 1446 Tenochtitlan was badly flooded, so Montezuma I ordered a great embankment to be built to protect the city. Then, several years of bad harvests caused thousands of people to die of starvation. Pledging to never let this happen again, the Emperor set out to expand outside of the valley, conquering wealthy lands with good farmland. Two years later, the Aztecs formed an alliance with two neighboring cities, Texcoco and Tlacopan. This "Triple Alliance" continued to conquer other lands, and by the 16th century they controlled an empire of four million people.

  • In the decade before the Spanish arrived in Mexico, Aztec Emperor Montezuma II and his people were filled with a sense of foreboding. A series of evil omens had foretold of calamities to come. A fiery comet crossed the sky. The temple of Huitzilopochtli, the god of war, burst into flames. The Lake of Mexico boiled and rose, flooding into houses. A weeping woman passed by in the middle of the night, crying "My children, we must flee far away from this city!" Fishermen discovered a bird that wore a strange mirror in the crown of its head. Montezuma looked into the mirror and saw a distant plain, with people making war against each other and riding on the backs of animals resembling deer.

      Hernan Cortes was a powerful man and was a very intelligent man. Which is now remembered
  • In the days that followed, Cortés and his men marvelled at the treasures of Tenochtitlán - the strange foods, the "wondrous artefacts" - and were horrified by the Aztec religious rites of human sacrifice.

      This is a website where you can learn about the conquest of the Inca Empire and how it was before it was destroyed.
  • With the mighty Aztec Empire in ruins and the Maya decimated in Central America, only one formidable native kingdom remains in the New World: the gold-rich Inca, high in the frigid mountains of Peru. Francisco Pizarro, an illiterate conquistador in the ruthless mold of Hernán Cortés sets out with 200 men to defeat the last great New World Empire.
