Good. I mean, yeah the Conquistadors were bloodthirsty bastards, but one of the reasons they went so ham on Central America was that when they landed they saw what cruel, barbaric, and bloodthirsty people the Aztecs were and thought 'Well, when in Rome!'
The Aztecs, according to every account we have of them, even those written by themselves, show them to be one of the most gleefully and spitefully cruel and barbarous civilisations to have ever existed on Earth.
