The Spanish individuals whose guns, organizational skills, and determination brought them success, the Spanish had more firepower and had a weapon that you could not fight against, smallpox. Smallpox killed nearly all of the Aztec and Incan population. There were definitely some other factors, but disease was the biggest.
