The Navatlacas: Heirs to Hernan and Montezuma is an Alternate History where Hernán Cortés overthrows the Aztecs and instead of leaving it for the King of Spain, misunderstandings between the two of them leaves Hernan into forming his own empire in the Americas. Read it here.The time-line begins with a slow start. It starts off with Cortes preparing for his expedition to Mexico though small changes already come in. He arrives with more money and troops, giving him much more luck in conquering the natives. Fast forward to 1520, he conquers Tenochtitlan rather early and leaves the town and its surviving inhabitants more or less intact instead of destroying them. The time-line then branches off to multiple fronts, covering the changes in Europe, the Americas and in Asia. Charles V manages to kick Francois I of France's ass much harder after the battle of Pavia leaving the man imprisoned where he dies, leaving his brother in law Henry of Navarre to take the throne in his place, as a stooge to Charles. The Mughals get rounded up and beaten in Panipat by the Delhi Sultanate who in turn get beaten by Rajputs. Portugal has better luck starting up relations with Ming China and sets up colonial ports all over the country, monopolizing on trade.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })However in the Americas, while Cortes is a great general, his policies are a little more controversal. He's a zealous Catholic and does whatever is possible in pissing off the native population and show his superiority compared to them. Told through a combination of small stories and your average history textbook. Various characters include the ruler Cortes, the commanders Alvarado, Pizarro, Olid, Cortes' former mistress Malinali, his queen Isabel, the priest turned Patriarch Geronomio de Aguilar and various other individuals. |

Asskicking Leads to Leadership: Cortés cements himself as Lord-Speaker of the Aztecs through smashing all those who stands before him, even fellow Spaniards. |

Balance of Power: The Pope's foreign policy emphasizes that the major powers of Europe (Holy Roman Empire, Spain, France, etc.) do not get too powerful at the expense of hiw own influence in Italy. |

Beam Me Up, Scotty!: An in-universe example. The historians of the Navatlacas highly doubt that Cortés gave an epic, Shakespearean speech when declaring independence from Spain. |
