The Aztecs, Mayans, and the Inca all have very remarkable governments, That affects us in some ways even today. They also have technologies and, economies that, also affects us today, even though they lived many years ago, they still affect us today.
The Inca Empire, flourishing from 1438 to 1533 was the largest and the most advanced empire in South America and the largest in the world during that time. The empire conquered land all the way from southern Columbia to central Chile during its powerful zoetic. The Inca Empire was highly advanced during the post classical period because of the many discoveries and developments in agriculture, mathematics, science, architecture, and how they used ancestral worship as a way to gain land. In addition to all this they accumulated a huge amount of wealth which ultimately led to their demise in 1532.
The ancient Mayans, who lived in parts of present-day Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras, created one of the most complex and advanced civilizations in the Western Hemisphere. The Mayans accomplished many remarkable and influential achievements, most notably, in art, astronomy, and engineering. The achievements of the Mayans influenced the cultures around them and are still influential today.
The Aztec people dominated the 14th through 16th century Mesoamerica. They are one of the most noted cultures recognized in history books today and they deserve as much recognition for their accomplishments and errors as much as any other civilization because their works were much the same. Their religious practices were similar to that of the ancient civilizations throughout the entire world. The magnificent capital, Tenochtitlan, displays accomplishments other cities had achieved thousands of years before the Aztecs marched through what is now Mexico. Even the fall of their empire was like that of the far away Celtic civilization and countless others.
The Mayans’ greatest achievement was neither developing a calendar, nor establishing a complex trade system- but rather, the building of their gigantic cities. But what defines excellency? The answer can be categorized into four sections: significance, scale, genius, and effort. The ancient Mayan civilization thrived in isolation, and it wasn’t until recently that we began to truly appreciate their culture and accomplishments. However, it was their enormous strain many years ago that today results in buildings towering over 130 feet in height. This motivation that drove the mayans nearly 4,000 years ago also produced a variety of remarkable ideas and concepts, many of which we use today.
The Aztecs were an ancient civilization found in Mesoamerica. Two aspects that they are known for are building temples and pyramids and also known for developing a form of writing called hieroglyphics. However, historians should emphasize on agriculture. We should emphasize on agriculture for three reasons.
The Inca civilization was a successful civilization that thrived and was very successful in their region. The Incas were clever and master builders, they built irrigation systems in a dry climate and building that still last today. Second of all, the Incas may have been influenced by the Pueblo tribe that thrived in the region before the Incas and may have left behind things to contribute to the Incas success. The Incas were master builders and may have been influenced by an earlier tribe called the Pueblos.
From the calendars we still use today, to the way we grow crops with farming, ancient civilizations such as the Mayas, the Aztecs, and the Incas influenced and created the way we contribute our skills towards the public. These people’s expertise proves just how they improved the world. The civilizations were advanced for their time based on their early society, their accomplishments, and the remains that are still remembered, as well as viewed to this day.
In the pre-Columbus Americas three societies, the Mayans, Olmecs, and Incas were able to flourish without some of the advanced technology that the Europeans of the time had. Although some of these societies innovations and technology were similar to the Europeans, they were not as advanced or as strong. The way we look at the Mayans, Olmecs, and Incas of this time should be looked at as advanced and intelligent societies.
The Aztec and Incan empires were just two of the many government figures that cultivated an image of authority and power (held by the people).creating the expectations of what a governing administration should appeal as to representing themselves projecting an authoritative image to the community and others still use this technique for foundation to the modern world as well as religion and economics which come hand in hand with government and society. Retrospectively in addition to the many ties connected to leadership and the formation of laws and regulations innovative architectural ideas and monuments progressed throughout the history of both The Aztecs and Inca. Heavily suppressed by world wars and genocides within high school history books, neither empire sought a chance for even a chapter or lesson opening a gap of general knowledge known for the responsibilities these cultures have affected. Both empires designed a way of living they believed would protect and achieve more greatness within themselves. Pioneering one of the many first trial and error solutions that is commonly used throughout careers and everyday lives, of the possibilities of what could happen if they did not test things out to see the greatness and failures.
While many may be aware of the Aztec civilization, their accomplishments can often be overshadowed by the time period when they were conquered by Spanish explorers, such as Hernan Cortez. However, the Aztecs were a prospering society before their downfall to the Spaniards. The Aztec’s demise is not the only characteristic to remember about one of the most commonly recognized civilizations of the fifteen hundreds. As an ancient Mesoamerican civilization displaced by powerful explorers, the Aztecs can still be seen as an organized society driven by their spirituality and traditions.
The Mayans were just one of several civilizations in Mesoamerica that accomplished many achievements. They had one of the greatest pre-industrial architectural cultures, started a trade network, formed a number system and were one of the first to use the number zero, and created a calendar based off what they saw. The trade network was significant as it allowed the Mayan tribes to trade for necessities, such as salt and cacao, and helped spread their culture (Doc A). The remains of the strong buildings built by the Mayans proved they were one of the “greatest preindustrial cultures of the world” in their time (Doc B). The accuracy and time measurements of their calendars were better than any other, and allowed them to predict the weather and
The Inca empire. The Aztec Empire. Empire. A very large group of people ruled over by one person. The Aztec and Inca empire were both different empires but they did have things common. Today I will be sharing and comparing the similarities and differences between the Aztec empire and the Inca empire. Although the tribes came from different locations and don’t have much in common, they do have different things that make them alike, such as the fact that they both have important events that occur around the same time and that they both eat some of the same foods. These two empires are very different as well, but most tribes and empires are.
The British Empire began expanding over into North America in the late 1500’s. The first few attempts to creating a stable and lasting colony was a struggle for England and the new colonists until 1607 when the British granted the Virginia Company of London permission to send colonists over to North America (Boyer et al. 47). The first colony proved to be successful, and the British Empire believed that forming more colonies would bring in more profit for the home country. Soon after 1607, the New England, Middle and Southern colonies would make up England’s proprietorship on the east coast of North America. As these colonies were prospering, and developing, all three had their
The Mayan civilization was a Mesoamerican civilization developed by the Mayan peoples, which stood out in America1 for its hieroglyphic writing, one of the few fully developed writing systems of the pre-Columbian American continent, as well as for its art, architecture and systems of mathematics, astronomy and ecology.2 It was developed in the region that encompasses the southeast of Mexico, corresponding to the states of Yucatan, Campeche, Tabasco, Quintana Roo and eastern Chiapas, as well as in most of Guatemala, Belize, the western part of Honduras and El Salvador. This region is composed of the northern lowlands that encompass the Yucatan peninsula, the highlands of the Sierra Madre that extends through the Mexican state of Chiapas, southern
