The Aztecs and the Inca
In about 1200, people called the Aztecs began to migrate south from northern Mexico. Accoording to the legend, they were following the instructions of their gods, who told them to travel until they saw an eagle with a snake in its beak sitting on a cactus. There, he said, they should settle. When the Aztecs reached an island in Lake Texcoco, they at last saw what they had been searching for.

why did the people kill the ruler. If the farmers cut down the forest, then where would the animals live? Did they adapt to there surrondings, did they die or got hunted. What is the maya? Did the people who didn't have a farm survive, or did they live with the people that have farms? What was the supplise that they used to builed the pyramids. Why where the that kings buried in temples? Why do they have a tunnels in there? What are the descendants of the maya? How did they live if they didn't have roofs of top of there houses? Why do the Aztecs have to travel to find an eagle with a snake in it's beak sitting on a cactus plant? Why is the eagle, the snake, and cactus a symbol on a flag? Why do they force people to do things for them? Why are they so mean? What is the word Huitzilopochi mean? Why do they kill people and animals for there god. that is just plain mean, that means that loved ones are going to die. If my family members did that I would cry because I would miss them.
