Synthetic horseshoes, available since 1990, are made of nylon and various forms of plastic, such as acrylic polymers, polyurethane and polyethylene. They are glued, rather than nailed, to the hoof, which prevents the trapping of moisture between the shoe and the hoof.
Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire. (Redirected from The destruction of the Aztec) The Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire (begun February 1519) was one of the most significant events in the Spanish colonization of the Americas.
The Aztec empire reached its height during the reign of Ahuitzotl in 1486â1502. His successor, MotehcuzÅma Xocoyotzin (better known as Moctezuma II, Moctezuma, or Montezuma), had been Hueyi Tlatoani for 17 years when the Spanish, led by HernÃ¡ndo CortÃ©s, landed on the Gulf Coast in the spring of 1519.
