西班牙征服阿茲特克帝國，又稱西班牙 阿茲特克戰爭（15191521），是西班牙殖民美洲的過程中最重要的戰役之一。這一場戰役之後西班牙殖民者成功鎮壓了阿茲特克人，並佔領了今日墨西哥中部地區，但並未征服整個現代墨西哥地區。 自從哥倫布發現美洲大陸、並在那裡建立了數個殖民據點之後，在西班牙王室的授權下，殖民者以殖民據點為根據地，四處派出遠征隊，發現、征服並且殖民新領地。1519 年 2 月，西班牙殖民者在埃爾南科爾特斯的率領下從墨西哥灣登陸，向阿茲特克前進，在此之前，科爾特斯沒有任何軍事經驗。阿茲特克人卻將他們請進了首都特諾奇蒂特蘭。但西班牙人卻軟禁了皇帝蒙特祖馬二世，向阿茲特克人勒索黃金。科爾特斯隨後被憤怒的阿茲特克人擊敗，被迫逃亡到與阿茲特克敵對的國家特拉斯卡拉尋求庇護。一年之後，在特拉斯卡拉、森波阿拉等與阿茲特克敵對國家的幫助下，科爾特斯再次攻打阿茲特克，在 1521 年 8 月 13 日以沉重地代價攻陷了特諾奇提特蘭，將其夷為平地，改建為墨西哥城。 相關條目 阿茲特克 新西班牙 西班牙征服尤卡坦 西班牙帝國 參考文獻 擴充套件閱讀 一手資料 Alva Ixtlilxochitil Fernando Ally of Cortés Account 13 of the Coming of the Spaniards and the Beginning of the Evangelical Law Douglass K Ballentine translator El Paso Texas Western Press 1969 Introduction de Michel Graulich commentaire de mis à jour par Michel Graulich comment by Robert h Barlow put updated by Michel Graulich Bibliothèque nationale de FranceSociété des Américanistes Paris 1995 Cortés Hernán Letters available as Letters from Mexico translated by Anthony Pagden 1986 de Fuentes Patricia ed The Conquistadors FirstPerson Accounts of the Conquest of Mexico Norman University of Oklahoma Press 1993 Previously published by Orion Press 1963 貝爾納爾迪亞斯德爾卡斯蒂略，The Conquest of New Spain available as The Discovery and Conquest of Mexico 15171521 The History of the Indies of New Spain 1581 Translated and edited by Doris Heyden Norman University of Oklahoma Press 1994 textbook anthology We People Here Nahuatl Accounts of the Conquest of Mexico Berkeley and Los Angeles University of California Press 1991 anthology 弗朗西斯科洛佩斯哥馬拉 Cortés The Life of the Conqueror by His Secretary Translated by Lesley Byrd Simpson Berkeley University of California Press 1964 弗朗西斯科洛佩斯哥馬拉，Hispania Victrix First and Second Parts of the General History of the Indies with the whole discovery and notable things that have happened since they were acquired until the year 1551 with the conquest of Mexico and New Spain 貝爾納迪諾德薩阿貢 General History of the Things of New Spain The 佛羅倫薩手抄本 Book 12 Arthur JO Anderson and Charles Dibble translators Salt Lake City University of Utah Press 貝爾納迪諾德薩阿貢 The Conquest of New Spain 1585 Revision Trans by introduction and notes by SL Cline Salt Lake City University of Utah Press 1989 ed Victors and Vanquished Spanish and Nahua Views of the Conquest of Mexico Boston Bedford 2000 textbook anthology Siepel Kevin H Conquistador Voices The Spanish Conquest of the Americas as recounted largely by the Participants vol 1 Spruce Tree Press 2015 textbook anthology The History of the Conquest of Mexico by the Spaniards 1753 Trans Thomas Townsend 2 vols New York AMS Press 1973 Historia de la conquista de Méjico Reprint Forgotten Books 2018 Vázquez de Tapia Bernardino Relación de méritos y servicios del conquistador c 1545 Mexico UNAM 1972 二手資料 The Aztecs of Central Mexico An Imperial Society Holt Rinehart and Winston 1982 Time History and Belief in Aztec and Colonial Mexico Texas University Press 2001 Hassig Ross Mexico and the Spanish Conquest Longman London and New York 1994 The Conquest of Mexico Incorporation of Indian Societies into the Western World 16th 18th centuries Polity Press 1993 Prescott William H History of the Conquest of Mexico with a Preliminary View of Ancient Mexican Civilization and the Life of the Conqueror Hernando Cortes Restall Matthew Seven Myths of the Spanish Conquest Oxford University Press 2003 Restall Matthew When Montezuma Met Cortés The True Story of the Meeting that Changed History Ecco 2018 Todorov Tzvetan The Conquest of America by 1996 Conquest Cortés Montezuma and the Fall of Old Mexico by 1993 Cortés and the Downfall of the Aztec Empire by 1971 傳記 Brandt Anthony Perfect storm at Tenochtitlan 1521 How Cortess band of hidalgos destroyed the Mexica Empire MHQ The Quarterly Journal of Military History 2014 58 Daniel Douglas A Tactical Factors in the Spanish Conquest of the Aztecs 1992 18794 Raudzens George So Why Were the Aztecs Conquered and What Were the Wider Implications Testing Military Superiority as a Cause of Europes PreIndustrial Colonial Conquests War in History 1995 87104 Townsend Camilla Malintzins Choices An Indian Woman in the Conquest of Mexico Albuquerque University of New Mexico Press 2006 White John Manchip Cortes and the Downfall of the Aztec Empire A Study in a Conflict of Cultures 1972 46768 外部連結 Hernán Cortés on the Web 網路字典 Catholic Encyclopedia 1911 Conquistadors with Michael Wood IberoAmerican Electronic Text Series La Historia verdadera de la conquista de la Nueva España Category 阿茲特克 Category 墨西哥歷史 Category 西班牙在美洲的征服 Category 新西班牙 Category1520 年代北美洲
