Initial forces to besiege Tenochtitlan
Tlacopan - Pedro de Alvarado
30 horses, 18 crossbowmen and gunsmiths, 150 pawns of sword and round, 25,000 Tlaxcalans.
Iztapalapa - Gonzalo de Sandoval

24 horses, 4 gunsmiths, 13 crossbowmen, 150 pawns of sword and round, 30,000 allies of Huejotzingo, Cholula and Chalco.

Why is the idea that a few hundred spanish conruered the new world even tought in school? when preatty much the army was indigenous.

The few hundred Spanish were the ones who got everything together, made the big decisions etc. Yes, the natives were already there, but all it took was a few hundred spanish added to a situation where they were statistically irrelevant to change the future of the whole region.

Well like >>2989672 says they were the ones who got the ball rolling and at the end of the war they came out as new rulers rather than their allies.

In a military perspective the Spanish were dis proportionally effective but I am not sure if they would have stood a chance without native support.

>>2989565

Because a few hundred Spanish conquered the new world. They played the pivotal role in defeating the Aztecs and they clearly came out on top in the end.

I wonder.

Right. I believe the most one-sided battle in recorded history took place when a few ranks of Spaniards killed something like seven thousand Aztec warriors, with the only Spanish loss being a wound to the hand of the Spanish commander.

Obviously they could had never conquer the incas if it weren't for the civil war and the smallpox.
