He destroyed an entire civilization. Hernando......Hernando...He stole the wealth of the Aztecs, gold, jewels, chocolate and spread smallpox as well as trying to push Christianity down their throats.
However, that is the logic of empire. God is Always on the side of the heaviest artillery

Hernán(do) Cortés Pizarro, 1st Marqués del Valle de Oaxaca (1485–December 2, 1547) was a Spanish conquistador who initiated the conquest of the Aztec Empire on behalf of Charles V, king of Castile and Holy Roman Emperor, in the early 16th century. Cortés was part of the generation of Spanish colonizers that began the first phase of the Spanish colonization of the Americas.
