Moctezuma II rose to power as the ninth ruler of the Aztec Empire through a combination of military prowess, political alliances, and the consolidation of tribute from conquered territories. He expanded the empire significantly during his reign from 1502 to 1520, strengthening its economy and influence. His leadership was marked by both religious devotion and a strategic approach to governance, enabling him to maintain control over a diverse population and manage the complexities of Aztec society.

No, Moctezuma Xocoyotzin was the Aztec leader during the time of the Spanish conquest or he could be the grandfather of that moctezuma which is Moctezuma Ilhuicamina
Teotihuacan is the city where the Aztecs held their power. It was invaded by Cortes when Moctezuma was in power. It is located where Mexico City is today.
Moctezuma I died in 1469.
There is a controversy over how Moctezuma Xocoyotzin actually died, but the argument basically is that the Spaniards from back then say that the Aztec people killed him in a revolt of the government with rocks and the descendents of the Aztec people say that the Spaniards killed Moctezuma once they realized he had no more power over his people.
