1 Feb 1519 Jahr - The Aztec Empire is Conquered

Beschreibung:

Hernan Cortes conquered the Aztec Empire, and killed their emperor. Moctezuma II was unpopular, and he used this as an advantage. Cortes had guns, horses, and metal armor, which the Aztecs were unable to compete against. He conquered Tenochtitlan, which was a city floating on water. Cortes claimed the wealth and land for the Spanish. The Aztecs were displaced, and their land was taken from them.
