What if the american empires somehow didn't got colonized (in this case the aztecs)

That, it's actually almost impossible but let's imagine that it could happen, what probably first happen is, when the US got their independence, probably as japan give an opportunity for industrialisation or invacion, now let's remember that the aztecs' culture was of war and conquest, so, after some civil wars and other things the aztecs youst as the japanese of the 19 century get industrialisation, after years and years of industrialisations they probably be allies with the U.S and trade partners and probably both got to the WW1 or even WW2 (but sadly, probably they might not be a 201 aztec eagle squadron), now what you all have been waiting for! the culture and language!!, now, they probably still speak nahuatl and (course in this universe non of the american empires or nations were colonized) probably a bit of maya language, joust like in today's U.S mexican frontier where a lot of words from the english language got into the spanish, the culture might still be of... you know, kill and sacrifice slaves and take their heart while still beating..., now you remember the part I mention that the U.S might industrialice the aztec nacion, well while doing that, that thing of getting a man's heart while still beating might disappear but not at all getting christianity, not so as the japanese from 19 century, probably it might be seen by the other nations as (seriously this is not racist) in our timeline see the african nations, the life today in this aztec nations might be quite good, IDK that last part was youst to end this with a happy note ehh, let your oppinions down velow in the comments.... bye?

Why did the native empires of the Inca , Maya,and Aztecs fall so much faster than the native tribes in the north who seemed to adapt , fight conquering forces ,and lasted longer independent ?

The empires ofSouth and Meso America were much larger and seemingly more centralized and militarily advanced than those in the north. Obviously I understand that the Inca had just undergone a brutal civil war making them even more susceptible to conquest and the Aztecs had many hated vassal and tributary groups that joined the conquistadors. And lastly disease was a huge aspect to the fall of both groups to Europeans/ Americans. Though one could say the conflict between the British and French and later Americans and British kept them expansion low, the Portuguese were in near the Spanish with Brazil. The terrain of North America would seem less hostile and difficult than meso america and definitely the peaks of the Incan empire. Did the more centralized and more technologically development of the empires make them weaker. The Incan roads made travel in the empire easy for them but it made it far easier for the Conquistadors to move horses, troops, cannon and ammunition than it would’ve been without it. South and Central America seem larger than Latin America though north and south than east and west. And though both groups died of diseases like small pox, the conquest of the north took hundreds of more years, the native groups existed as independent nations such as the Iroquois confederacy, Tecumseh’s confederacy,and waged war such as by the Seminoles and runaway slaves, king Philips war, and battles such as little big horn and the massacre of wounded knee. Many native groups adapted European arms and in the case of horses even more so than the Europeans/ Americans . Yet the native populations are larger down south and including mixed/mestizo populations of people with some native blood it’s even larger.

[Film Pitch] The Spanish Conquest of the Aztec empire was neither Spanish nor a Conquest (nor was it an empire, nor of Aztecs for that matter...)

Listen,

on this day in the month of February in the year 3 House I went to see a ruler in the place called Holly Wood, and I said

You don't have any stories to tell anymore, you only repeat the old ones that have been passed on and repeated too often, so I will tell you a story, one that has been falsely told for exactly 500 years.

So I told him:
This is a story of destruction of destruction and genocide. They say that 9 out of every 10 macehaultin in all this land died by weapon or hunger or disease. It is the attempted destruction of the songs and paintings and lore of my people by the men who came from across the sea. It is also the survival of our culture at great cost.

Look, this can be a story of great armies and battles if it is needed,

(The man looked only at a mirror in his pocket or sometimes at a mirror on the table).

In that case, we need a lot of people who speak Nahuatl: about 200,000 on the Castilian side, and as many more on the Mexica side. Of course, a few hundred Castilians could never have won without them ... So we also need a few Castilians, I was told that in this place there is only one named GarcΓ­a Bernal, so we should look for more.

Also there must be a great number of women, after the fall of Tenochtitlan and its destruction by the Tlaxcaltecs and the Castilians and their other allies, it was the women who rebuilt everything, who took care of the markets and the chinampas as always, and we owe them greatly,

but I was also told that here in this place it is difficult to find women for such roles, here in this place it is all about stories of marriage and not about women's work.

(Another person in the room was talking, he said "this could be like a new Apocalypso but without all the sacrifices, or like a new The New World but without... the "new" world?")

Truly, everyone always wants to talk about the siege of Tenochtitlan , but I say that for me the most traumatic event was the conquest of my people of the Chalca by the Mexica, in this year 1465 ...

...

(Then the ruler of Holly Wood interrupted me saying only Get Out!)

(Later the other person said, he advised to see in Europe and try my luck there.)

Instead I decided I write the story myself as I had always done, because it was and it still is necessary,

So listen. And I wrote:

> Such is the relation that they

Would you want to see a Assassins Creed game set during the Aztec Empire?

when I think about cool settings for an Assassins Creed Game the Aztec Empire always came to mind and I'm not sure why. I feel like an Aztec setting would be so unique and different then other game settings. everything about the Aztec's are so unique form there armor and there weapons and there many Gods.

  • Huitzilopochtli, Father of the Aztecs
  • Tlaloc, God of Rain and Storms
  • Tonatiuh, God of the Sun
  • Tezcatlipoca, God of Night

there are many other Gods as well but something about the Aztecs are so Interesting to me. How would you AC fans feel about an Aztec AC game?

In 'When Montezuma Met Cortez', Matthew Restall argues that the 20k+ annual human sacrifices by the Aztec Empire is a totally unsupported claim. Is he right?

His argument, in an extremely simplified form, is that the demography and archaeology do not in any way support tens of thousands of yearly sacrifices, and that those numbers come entirely from secondhand colonial sources who have an extremely obvious interest in painting their enemies as bloodthirsty monsters. I found it extremely convincing, but I'm not a historian.

What do historians think?
