ABSTRACT
In the paper presented, the character and personality of Cortés are so
varied and multifaceted that the way of following the events chronologically
has been chosen, so that it is more enjoyable to read, without getting lost in
the text, but presenting a summary of the people and places necessary to
guide the work.
All notes and references are to be able to go to the sources from which
they have been taken. It is obvious and due to the breadth of the subject. It
is about offering, and without leaving the subject: Entrepreneur and Creator
of La Nueva España, an agile formula that allows us to know their achievements,
projects and risk companies, and at the same time reflect one of the
greatest epics in the History of Spain. (Ramon Tamames.)
His activity did not cease after the Conquest, where he shone as a military
strategist and diplomat, to quickly later stand out as a businessman in
his role as promoter of The New Spain.(La Nueva España, actually México).
KEY WORDS: Hernán Cortés, The New Spain, Entrepreneur, Conquest,

NOTA IMPORTANTE
Téngase en cuenta:
MÉXICO, siempre se pronunciará Méjico, (con sonido “jota”). Esta
letra es clave en el nombre de México. Tiene una personalidad curiosa porque
su pronunciación para ellos es Méjico, pero se escribe con “X”. No decir
nunca México, como en inglés pronuncian los anglosajones. No gusta a los
intelectuales, ni al mexicano actual.
