Please I need major help with Modern World History?

Question

The Spanish were able to defeat the Native American Civilizations of the Aztecs and the Incas partly through the unintentional introduction of diseases, particularly smallpox. Many historians believe these diseases wiped out 80 – 90% of the indigenous peoples.

What do you believe might have happened if the Aztecs and Incas had greater tolerance to the diseases introduced to their civilizations? In a 150-250 word paragraph, discuss how you think history might or might not have been different with regard to the European colonization of Latin America. Support your opinion with specific details.

Answer 1

I can't do your homework for you. You're on the right track. Just remember that even though the Incas and Aztecs were warring peoples and they outnumbered the Spanish, they didn't have the firepower. The Spanish were motivated by gold. This is a motivation that is hard to deny.
