well he only killed by disease

About to jerk off, send me material guys

yeah cortes just took shit lmao

which is the badass part

Apparently he was told to call off his expedition right after he left

I like Columbus, regardless of kill count

columbus was alegend no matter what

he was outnumbered in a land completely alien to europeans

his navigational ability was unmatched

maybe in history

that too

Cortes was no doubt a legend

cortes was just a madlad

who went against all odds

madman fr

columbus carried that super measles on him too

Pizarro had some pretty insane luck too

I wrote my first essay ever on him

educate me on him

was he the el dorado guy

I read about Cortes' expedition last year

he conquered the inca empire

peru

held the emperor "sapa inca" hostage

and bribed the whole country

killed the emperor

and then conquered the country

lmao only an emperor could do that

literally find some mfs and hold their emperor hostage with a dozen men

just the boys

aryan field trip

as much as pizzaro was based, conquering the incas wasn't nearly as difficult as it seems

since it had been in decline for centuries prior

the incas were quite powerful

and were able to field a large organized army

they were, but prior to Pizzaro's arrival they were in decline

also a mountain people

that could travel rapidly through the mountains

Didn't Pizzaro cause a huge civil war when he held the emperor hostage

because all of his sons claimed succession

it might have been with the aztecs I don't remember completely
