The Enemies of Target Enemy
It has been brought to our attention that many natives in Mesoamerica fear the rule of Target Enemy, a civilization that imposes heavy tribute, conducts brutal rituals, and keeps surrounding tribes in a state of fear and resentment. Our emissaries report that Target Country would eagerly support anyone who could bring down this tyrant. Perhaps, we could try aligning with these local powers to overthrow the Target Enemy Adjective rule.

12701historical_info = flavor_cas.2500.historical_info When Hernán Cortés arrived in Mesoamerica in 1519, the Spanish were vastly outnumbered by the mighty Aztec Empire. Yet it was not Spanish arms alone that brought about its downfall. In order to gain an advantage over the Aztecs, Cortés skillfully exploited the widespread resentment among the Aztec's tributary states and rivals, particularly the Tlaxcalans, Totonacs, and Huexotzincas, who had long suffered under Aztec dominance, forced tributes, and human sacrifice. These native allies proved decisive as they contributed tens of thousands of indigenous warriors that joined the Spanish cause.
