The Aztecs created wealth by establishing a vast tribute system, where they demanded goods, resources, and labor from the conquered city-states and nations surrounding them. They engaged in trade, exchanging valuable items such as cacao, textiles, and obsidian, which enhanced their economy. Additionally, their military conquests enabled them to control key trade routes, further consolidating their wealth and power in Mesoamerica. This system of tribute and trade contributed significantly to the prosperity of the Aztec Empire.
