    The first argument states that without such a misunderstanding how could a handful of Spaniards conquer the great Aztec state. The only way these so called mighty conquerors could have pulled off this unbelievable conquest is that the Aztecs were fooled in the worst way. The Aztecs fell victim to their devoutness and calendric coincidence and that could be the only reason that the mighty Aztec s feel to the quite lucky Spaniards. If the Aztecs had not been confused by the major coincidences, they could have blew the Spaniards off like other Native American tribes, like the South Sea Islanders did with Captain Cook. Cortes just happened to be in good fortune to land on Aztec soil at this time.…

According to Document C “Aztec account of the conquest”, “When the Spaniards were installed in the place, they asked Motecuhzoma about the city’s resources and reserves… They questioned him closely and then demanded gold.” Under those circumstances, the Spaniards could possibly conquered the Aztecs to become wealthier and have more supplies and new resources.

    Disease also played a huge part in the defeat of the Aztecs. The Spanish brought ailments that the Aztecs had no immunities for. Three-fourths died from either violence or diseases such as small-pox and the measles in just the first century of the conquests. The Aztecs’ tactics of war were quite different from those of the Spaniards, and this was also a point in the Spaniards’ favor. The Spaniards fought…

    Some critics might argue that the Aztec Empire had an extensive amount of people in comparison to the few Spaniards, that the Aztecs could have developed a systematic plan to avoid Spanish conquest if they did not welcome or misbelieved the Spanish were retuning gods reclaiming their rightful empire. However, the Aztecs were still going to encounter the Spanish, as they were already settled in areas in New Hispaniola in the Gulf of Mexico. The Spanish sought to increase their chances of wealth and fortune and would try to find those riches. Also, the forced tributary system and capture of slaves as sacrifice created resentment and hatred toward the Aztec empire, which was a strategic advantage for the Spanish as they could form enemy allies…

    The second Spanish conquistadors’ motive that greatly affected the people living in the new world was Christianity. This motive is easily seen in documents 1, 4, 7, and 8. Document one is an excerpt that was to be read to the Indians stating that if they did not except the Christian Church as their superior and listen to Christian priests that the Spanish would invade their country and take them all as slaves. Document four is Cortez talking about how he overturned the Indians idols and rolled them down the stairs. Then he goes on to say he replaced the idols with Christian images and Cortez knew that these images were really important to Aztecs and he didn’t care. In document seven it is a royal decree from Charles I. It states that the written down volumes of the Indians rites, idols, and…

    The land of Tenochtitlan, which is currently owned by the Spanish, known as Mexico City, was not always under the same empire. This land used to belong to the Aztecs but was taken over when the battle between the Spanish and Aztecs occurred. Though some would think that this conflict was avoidable, I believe otherwise. In my opinion, I believe that the conflict of the Aztecs was inevitable, because of the differing religions, the Aztec's resources, Spanish’s excellent technology, and the Aztec's population size.…
