Best Answer

The ancient Mexicans which by the way is the correct way of describing these people, had a very strict control over the people they had a complex legal system which most people obeyed, and nobody thought in those days, of breaking the law, most cases were judged by three magistrates who decided over the innocence or declared the person responsible for the felony he was charged with.

The last word was on the decision of the Huey Tlatoani, or what you call the Emperor himself. one example was Izcoatl.
