Titre: Hernando Cortez, Spanish Conquistador
Légende: Voir la traduction automatique
Hernan Cortes de Monroy y Pizarro (1485-1547), Spanish Conquistador and part of the generation of Spanish colonizers that began the first phase of the Spanish colonization of the Americas. He was born at Medellin into minor nobility, and after studying at Salamanca chose to look for his fortune in Hispaniola and later Cuba. In 1519, against the orders of the Governor, he led an expedition to the mainland that caused the fall of the Aztec Empire and brought large portions of mainland Mexico under the rule of the King of Castile. When the Governor of Cuba sent emissaries to arrest Cortes, he fought them and won. He wrote letters directly to the king asking to be acknowledged for his successes instead of punished for mutiny. After he overthrew the Aztec Empire, Cortes was awarded the title of Marques del Valle de Oaxaca, while the more prestigious title of Viceroy was given to a high-ranking nobleman, Antonio de Mendoza. In 1541 Cortes returned to
