Answer:

Spanish troops had access to more advanced weapons than the

Aztecs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reasons the Spanish were able to conquer the Aztecs is because the Spanish’s weapon and Armor were better and stronger rather than the Aztecs and the Aztec warriors only had cotton Armor’s and shields made of animal skin also they were scaring them with the horses and using their more advanced superior weapons to kill them.

The Spanish conquered the great Aztec and Inca empires by bringing diseases to kill most of them off quickly, scaring them with the horses, and using their more advanced superior weapons to kill them.
