I've accidentally traveled to the year 1510, So far what i've learned is that I'm part of the Aztec Civilization. I'm 14 years old, We the Aztecs live in Aztlan which is now Mexico. Our civilizations name came from Aztlan, the name means "White Land" or " Land of White Herons" Our capital is Tenochtitlán and our native language is Nahuatl. So far I've witnessed a couple of sacrifices, Our civilization believes that whenever we don't sacrifice a person the sun wont rise, this is the reason we sacrifice people. Over the years our civilization has adopted gods this is known as a polytheistic religion they have also taken over other tribes, We also believe that our emperor was chosen by the gods, the emperor had supreme power over our civilization. We also had a code of law, court system and city-states paid a tribute.
