Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The Spanish conquistadors were explorers from Spain that came to the Americas and basically took over many parts of it. Hernando Cortez brought a sickness to the Aztecs, which killed them all. Francisco Pizarro conquered the Inca empire. They are both examples of Spanish conquistadors.
