Answer:
c. Rumors about gold.
Explanation:
Hernan Cortes had been living in Cuba, which he had taken a functioning part in winning. Cortes and different Spaniards heard bits of gossip about the presence of gold and an incredible human advancement on the territory. Cortes anchored a sanction from the Spanish representative to investigate and abuse whatever land was there.
At last, the governor disavowed his sanction. It didin´t matter for Corte. He cruised anyway. He took a little armada of 11 ships and 600 Spanish fighters for the search of gold.
