The Aztecs had thousands of warriors and Cortes only hundreds. Cortes hoped that his superior weapons would help bring him victory. He also sought help from enemies of the Aztecs. An Indian woman named Malintzin helped bring him allies.

Eventually Moctezuma was captured and killed Eventually Moctezuma was captured and killed. Disease bought by the Spanish like small pox, also helped the Aztec Empire fall.

What empire did the Conquistadors conquer next? The Inca E.mpire (Francisco Pizarro led the attack on the Inca Empire) The Incas outnumbered Conquistadors but could not match their swords and guns. The armor the Spanish wore also was a big help. They even put armor on their horses!

In only a few years the Spanish had conquered two great American Empires. The Spanish called their new empire “New Spain” Jews , Muslims and Non Christians were forbidden to settle in new Spain Trading posts were set up Military bases were built Christianity was spread Roads were built

Who was the other explorer who traveled through Florida and eventually traveled through Georgia, The Carolinas and discovered the Mississippi River? Hernando De Soto

What happened to explorer Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca and his men? They faced a shortage of food Severe weather killed many of the men De Vaca’s boat ship wrecked and only him and three others survived They were captured and enslaved by native American groups in the area After 6 years, the men finally escaped De Vaca eventually returned to spain

Spanish fleets eventually headed back to Spain with tons of Gold and riches they had from the Aztec and Inca empires. However, native people suffered greatly at the hands of the Spanish. Many were murdered and many of those who were not, were killed by disease. The Spanish who were settled in the Americas enslaved native Americans there and tried converting them to Christianity.
