Deplorable Degenerate on Nostr: Calling the violence of the Aztecs "quite limited" is about where I checked out. If ...
Calling the violence of the Aztecs "quite limited" is about where I checked out. If it was then the Aztecs themselves were inflating the number of people they were killing. They were proud of it.
Isabella expelled the Jews and while I am a protestant there's a lot of lies early protestants spread about Spanish behavior to smear some of the most devote Catholics of the time.
Cortez wasn't a saint and gold probably was his primary motivator but the Spanish for the most part were most interested in converting, and those that were too resistant to that did die.
