Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The animosity of Aztec subject peoples was the most important weakness of the Aztecs in the face of Spanish conquerors. Many of these subject peoples were eager to join forces with the Spanish to overthrow their Aztec rulers and gain their independence. This provided the Spanish with a significant advantage and weakened the Aztec military power. The other options - A) the identification of Cortés as the god Quetzalcóatl, C) the large numbers of Aztec slaves, and D) Aztec lack of defenses - were also important factors in the Spanish conquest, but not as crucial as the animosity of Aztec subject peoples.
