conquistadores
conquistadores Spanish soldiers and adventurers in the 16th century. The most famous conquistadores were Hérnan
CORTÉS, the conqueror of Aztec Mexico, and Francisco
PIZARRO, the conqueror of Inca Peru; but there were many others. Their discoveries and conquests included the Caribbean, Latin America, southern and south-western USA, and the Philippines. Many would-be conquistadores explored immense areas but conquered nothing and founded no permanent settlements. As proper colonial administrations were established their activity diminished.
