| Grandma, we are learning about European exploration of Latin America in school. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Oh really, I know all about that stuff. | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| Really. Do know what happened when the Europeans arrived in the Americas? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Oh that's easy. Spain and Portugal hated each other, but then signed the Treaty of Torsedillas that gave Spain one half and Portugal the other. | |
 | |  |

|
 | |  |
| Wow! What happened to Hernan Cortes when he conquered the Aztecs? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| He had met the daughter of the Mayan leader, Manlinche. She became his translator and watched out for Aztec spies. | |
