In 1519, Cortés entered the Aztec empire with a group of about 600 men and a few horses.

Cortés was welcomed into the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan. "My lord, you have become fatigued, you have become tired: to the land you have arrived. You have come to your city: Mexico, here you have come to sit on your place, on your throne. Oh, it has been reserved to you for a small time; it was conserved by those who have gone, your substitutes...'' This is what has been told by rulers and royal of Aztec, governors of the city. '' You would come to ask for his throne, your place, that you would come here. Come to the land, come and rest, and take over royal houses, give food to your body."

Your work is easy to understand, but you have some grammar mistakes in some places. Also, you should put captions on all the pictures so we know what they are about. Maybe you should put more locations so we know where exactly in Mexico did the Aztec live in.
I like your work and the pictures and the things you wrote is very easy to understand. And you don't need to put the ".." on every starting paragraph maybe to the first one so it sound like there is someone telling the story.
You should write at least a little bit about Montezuma and also write about what they thought about Cortes. You should write a lot more because they is a lot of important parts that you missed and you should write about the war and how Cortes won. Reduce your pictures size because you will have more space to write about the words and you will see how little words you write even though the pictures look good.

Religion as his training to become a priest in the temple of Huitzilopochtli, the god of war. Also trained about warfare, Montezuma played an Important part in the Aztec wars.

Cortés was born in the Spanish city of Medellín in 1485. When he was a young man, he studied law, but he soon gave that up to seek his fortune in the New World that was just being discovered by Columbus and others. First he went to the island of Santo Domingo, which now known as the Dominican Republic. In 1504, he was only 19 years old at the time. He stayed there for seven years, then took part in the Spanish conquest of Cuba in 1511. He became mayor of Santiago de Cuba and stayed there until 1518. In 1519, he talked the Spanish governor of Cuba into letting him lead an expedition to Mexico.
Your work is easy to understand, but you have some grammar mistakes in some places. Also, you should put captions on all the pictures so we know what they are about. Maybe you should put more locations so we know where exactly in Mexico did the Aztec live in.
I like your work and the pictures and the things you wrote is very easy to understand. And you don't need to put the ".." on every starting paragraph maybe to the first one so it sound like there is someone telling the story.
You should write at least a little bit about Montezuma and also write about what they thought about Cortes. You should write a lot more because they is a lot of important parts that you missed and you should write about the war and how Cortes won. Reduce your pictures size because you will have more space to write about the words and you will see how little words you write even though the pictures look good.
