The life of the Aztecs
The Aztecs lived many years ago in Mexico.Some people have ancestors who were Aztecs.The Aztecs worked hard every day.Their emperor,Moctezuma ruled all the Aztecs.There were many gods that the Aztecs worshipped.Moctezuma believed that if he didn't offer his gods human blood and hearts,the world would end.After Moctezuma died in 1520,his son-in-law Cuauhtemoc took over his place as emperor.The war against the Spaniards killed many of the Aztecs.Eventually,the Aztecs gave up.Moctezuma's death was misunderstood slightly.Moctezuma tried to calm the warriors surrounding him,but he only angered them more. The Aztecs felt that their emperor had betrayed them so they pelted him with stones.The Spaniards believed that Moctezuma had died from the wounds he got from the stones several days later.But Aztec accounts said that the Spaniards strangled their loyal emperor and threw his body off the palace roof.Though they all died,before the war,the Aztecs lived a hard-working life.And I'm going to tell you about the way they treated their agriculture.
