Aztecs

The invading Eurpeans (Hernan Cortez, et al) spread diseases like smallpox and measles, against which the Aztecs had no immunity. Thousands and thousands of the Aztecs died, to the point that they could no longer fight against the invaders.

Tenochtitlan was the capital of the Aztec Empire until. Today, the ruins of Tenochtitlan are in the historic center of Mexico City.

The Spanish had horses and superior weapons.

The main reason the Spanish wanted to conquer the Aztecs and the Incas was to acquire wealth, particularly gold and silver, which were abundant in these civilizations. The Spanish were also motivated by the desire to spread Christianity and expand their empire. Additionally, the pursuit of glory and the establishment of Spanish dominance in the New World played a significant role in their conquests.

I wish i knew

They wanted to capture the empires' gold and resources.

for their gods

Upgrading all of their technologies in the Blacksmiths and University, build Champions and go take on Callum using trebs and scorpions, burn the mofucka down claim their relics, then move on to sam, wipe him out using pikmen and skirmishers it wont take much before he cant deal with this bulls**t and quits. Finally Lewis as the Vikings, cut off his gold supply so he cant make bezerks. Using trebs take out walls and castles, then send in the troops to wipe out the remaining villagers and boom, a day in the life of the aztecs.

Education was vital in Aztec society because it was seen as a way to ensure the smooth operation of government, administration, and the economy. Education was used to train future leaders, warriors, craftsmen, and priests, ensuring the sustainability and success of their society. Additionally, education played a crucial role in transmitting cultural and religious knowledge from one generation to the next.

The Maya influence was more direct than that of the Olmecs because the Maya civilization thrived only a few hundred years before the Aztecs.

His harsh treatment and endless demands for tribute caused bitter hatred among Aztec subjects.

The Aztec Empire in modern-day Mexico was conquered by Hernán Cortés and his Spanish soldiers, who were called conquistadores.

In the history of the Americas many achievements have been made. Most of these achievements had come from the Maya, Inca, and Aztec Empires. Each civilization was greatly advanced in the topics agriculture, writing, and engineering and Astronomy.

Astronomy was one of the greatest achievements of the Mayan Empire. The Mayan Empire knew how many days were in a year and showed that they knew fall spring equinox. They demonstrated their knowledge of astronomy on their Pyramid of Kukulkan which they built their city around. The Mayan had 365 steps leading up the pyramid of Kukulkan one for each day of the year. They also demonstrated their knowledge of astronomy through the autumn and spring equinox. Every spring and fall equinox a snake shadow would slither down the pyramid leading to their sacred water source.

The Mayan also developed a calendar according to their knowledge of astronomy. Another great achievement of the Mayan Empire is their system of writing. The Mayan Empire had a system of writing based on nearly 800 signs in which each sign represent a full syllable. This style of writing is called glyphs and is still unknown today. But from these glyphs we are able to assume that they can read and write and therefore have written records.

One of the greatest achievements for the Incan Empire was their agriculture. The Incan Empire used a farming technique called terrace. This is when they cut into the mountain creating what looks like huge steps. These steps are now flat and not pointing downhill so they are able to farm on them. The Inca were also very advanced in their engineering skills. The Incas had a complex system of roads uniting its Empire through the Andes Mountains. The Inca Empire had to build their road through the Andes Mountains so they had to go up and down the hills/mountains which made it much harder.

Another civilization advanced in engineering was the Aztec Empire. They used their engineering techniques to build tall building, roads, canoes, canals, artificial causeways, bridges, temples, and houses. The Aztec Empire was built on and island and on this island they expanded it using some of their engineering techniques. Another topic in which they were advanced was agriculture. They used artificial islands to grow their crops. This was called floating gardens or chinampas. The islands were usually 15 to 30 feet big. With this technique their crops would get plenty of water so they would not have to water them as often.

The Maya, Inca and Aztec were all successful in many different ways. Through their advanced knowledge of engineering, agriculture astronomy and writing they have created many achievements. These civilizations can be considered great for their achievements.

An altepetl is a Nahua community or pueblo, especially in pre-Columbian and Spanish conquest-era Aztec society.

The civilizations of the Incas, Aztecs, and Mayans believed that human sacrifice was necessary to appease their gods and ensure the well-being of their societies. Through these rituals, they sought to maintain cosmic order, fertility, and good health in their communities. The practice also played a significant role in their religious beliefs and political power structures.

Every child in the Aztec empire had to go to school. That included boys, girls, and slaves. There were different schools for different classes of people. The rich went to one school, the poor another. Boys and girls did not go to the same school. But whatever school they attended, school was tough. There was no recess and no time to relax.

All the schools taught proper behavior. It was important to learn proper behavior because it was the law. If you broke a law, you could be killed. Schools also taught songs and dances, because they were part of religious ceremonies.

Most boys, when they graduated, were trained in hunting, farming, fishing, and fighting. The girls were trained to be good mothers, good cooks, and in other home arts like sewing.

But some schools trained kids in specialized professions. Kids would be moved into these special classes if they showed talent. One child might show a talent for math; they might be moved into the engineering classes. Another might show great interest in plants and making medicines; they might be moved into the school that trained doctors. The Aztecs recognized their need for a talented work force, whether that specialized work force was pulled from the common people or the nobility. If you had talent, school was a chance to move up in the world. The Aztecs believed in giving everyone a chance, even if it was a slim one.

The Aztecs moved from the mainland to the island of Tenochtitlan by constructing causeways and canals. Using wooden and stone structures, they built three main causeways that connected the island to the mainland, allowing for transportation and trade. They also utilized canoes to navigate the canals that crisscrossed the area, facilitating movement between the island and surrounding regions. This innovative engineering enabled the Aztecs to establish and expand their capital in the midst of Lake Texcoco.

Cortese had guns and trained troops. The Aztec had no resources to fight him and win.
