The Aztec emperor during Cortes time in the Aztec empire

Answer 1

The Aztec emperor during Hernán Cortés's conquest of the Aztec Empire was Moctezuma II (also spelled Montezuma II). He ruled from 1502 until his death in 1520. Moctezuma II was the ninth ruler of the Aztec Empire and is known for his significant expansion of the empire and his interactions with Spanish explorers, particularly Hernán Cortés, who arrived in Mexico in 1519. The encounters between Moctezuma II and Cortés ultimately led to the fall of the Aztec Empire and significant changes in the region due to Spanish colonization.
