Pizarro's conquest of the Inca Empire was a brutal and destructive endeavor carried out for personal ambition rather than noble cause.

“Pizarro's days of glory would be short-lived. In the ten years that he ruled over Peru, he presided over the steady collapse and disintegration of the entire society that he had once heard such incredible stories about.”

Pizarro is a dull, opaque figure lacking the clear, driving motivations of other conquistadors.

“I think there's something opaque opaque possibly even a bit dull. There's nothing especially likable. Although actually the other concisadors generally did find him likable.”
