The Aztec Empire engaged in several significant military campaigns, primarily aimed at expansion and the acquisition of tribute. Key conflicts include the wars against neighboring city-states like Tlaxcala and Huexotzinco during the late 15th century, which were part of the larger campaign to dominate the Valley of Mexico. The most notable military effort was the conquest of the Tarascan state, as well as various campaigns to subdue the Mixtecs and Zapotecs. Additionally, the Aztecs conducted ritual warfare, known as "xochiyaoyotl," to capture prisoners for religious sacrifices.
