The Real History of the Conquistadors

Real History with Matt Walsh Season 1 Episode 9

Overview:
This episode tells the incredible story of how roughly 500 Spaniards, led by Hernán Cortés, were able to conquer a civilization and bring Christianity to Mexico. They did it against all odds, often fighting forces that outnumbered them a thousand to one. We detail some of the gruesome cultural practices of the Meso-American Indians and argue that, even by modern liberal standards, what Cortés and his men did was very good for Mexico, for Spain, and for the Western World.
