Answer

The Spanish conquistadors were given significant assistance by La Malinche, an Indigenous Nahua woman who had been enslaved by the Aztecs. As an interpreter, guide, and advisor, she played a crucial role in their triumph. Malinche's knowledge of the native languages, cultures, and political dynamics proved invaluable to the Spanish, giving them a distinct advantage in their conquest of Mexico.
