Description:

A narrative journey to the heart of ancient Mexico, where myths, power, and passions reveal the secrets of a civilization that shaped our history. Why did Charles I never receive Hernando Cortés at court? Why did he never appoint him viceroy? Why, apart from the Marquisate of the Valley of Oaxaca, did he never give him any other position? Why did Cortés die frustrated in Spain? Did the Captain General know about smallpox? And despite knowing its terrible consequences, known for fifteen years in the Antilles, did he take several sick people to Tenochtitlan? Was the plague better than murdering thousands of Mexica? Was Motecuhzoma a coward? Why isn't Cuitláhuac recognized as he deserves? Were Malinalli and Cortés in love? Were the Tlaxcalans traitors? Did Spain conquer us or an indigenous alliance?
