Chickenpox defeated the Aztecs in fact, the Spaniards were beaten and kicked out of Tenochtitlan, and yes syncretism is very much alive in Mexico...DIA DE LOS MUERTOS...

If I were to choose who I wanted to be conquered, I'd say the Vikings, no the Spanaird. Being conquered by them, have the Aztecs less importance of what they really are

The Western world tries to create this narrative that Native/Indigenous people weren't sophisticated enough for the Europeans when it came to warfare. But history has proven over and over again that Native/Indigenous warriors were too much for Europeans. That's why Europeans resorted to using diseases (a form of chemical warfare) which reduced majority of the Native/Indigenous population and the recruitment of Native scouts to win their wars against warrior tribes.

The great cathedrals of Europe, a lot of those were built on pagan holy sites. One of them, you can see inside the alter, there's a pagan alter inside. Also, pagan gods were carved in many European stone churches as decorations.

You do realize that the church can reform itself and has sure they converted the natives in Mexico but they were also the one to stand up for their rights and it was a catholic Priest who lead the first rebellion against he Spanish. That propelled the Mexican independence moment.

Aztecs ritually sacrificed their fellow "natives" by the thousands at a time. If ever a culture deserved to be eradicated, it was them.

Their fellow warriors! you make it sound as if not every single peoples were warring with their neighbours If ever there were a people to war with it would be the Mexica, a respectful battle of capturing one’s opponents in war, gettin dat tribute n most importantly doing the rituals n ceremonies of offering life to the gods, repaying that blood debt, n continuing that sacred circle of life and death for, with life is death and with death is life, these are a sophisticated peoples… The Spaniards are the last people you’d ever wanna war with, no respect for you, or your gods or your family or your possessions, the Spaniard devils destroyed civilisations in the name of greed! Your actually brainwashed if you think that the people doing inquisitions n stuff are doing any favours for anyone…

The Laws of the Indies (Spanish: Leyes de las Indias) are the entire body of laws issued by the Spanish Crown for the American and the Asian possessions of its empire. They regulated social, political, religious, and economic life in these areas. The laws are composed of myriad decrees issued over the centuries and the important laws of the 16th century, which attempted to regulate the interactions between the settlers and natives, such as the Laws of Burgos (1512) and the New Laws (1542). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_of_the_Indies
