Society of Aztec Civilization

Question: Discuss about the Society of Aztec Civilization. Answer: Introduction: I am one of the warriors of Aztec Civilization. The society of Aztec Civilization is a society of rigidly stratified system in which support for the warriors decided by the class of people. As the Aztec Warrior is the backbone of the Aztec Civilisation that is the reason, I have been learning the art of warfare since childhood. This is because, at the time of my birth, my umbilical cord was cut and buried on the battle-field. It is the rule of the Aztec Civilization because they believe it to be sacred and by this, the life of the boy would be a warrior for his lifetime (Chipman, 2010). The civilisation of Aztec can be described as a certain group belonging to the central part of Mexico. I, one of the parts of the Aztec Civilization use the Nahuatl language for communication, and we cover up large parts of Mesoamerica.

There is also practical training on the battlefield that can be given to the youth including me. Because when I joined the army for the war at that time, I only use to carry the weapons and the war supplies. This work of mine was continued until I can capture the prisoner. The capturing of the prisoner in the war is my first initiation into the world of Aztec Warrior (Joyce, 2013). The capturing of the prisoner as a warrior took place on the day of arrival of the conquistadors into the Aztec Empire. At that time the colonisation of the America occurred by the Spanish Civilisation. It is one of the most significant events in which I participated as an Aztec Warrior. This war started with the Spanish authorised expeditions. This is because to have the discovery, colonisation and conquest the new territory which can include the existing Spanish settlements (Mayer, 1853). The war in which there was my initiation as an Aztec Warrior began in February 1519. In this process the conquest of Mexico by the Spanish Civilization comprising of the antecedents with having the established practices. The main thing that structured me is in the ruling Spanish Empire is the tribute to the Mexico along the maintenance of the internal ruling structures. There are many changes the Spanish Civilization made in my life along with the lives of the community. They bring out the cancell ation of the human sacrifices which use to be a big tradition of the culture of the civilisation. They started the farming practices along with the domestication of the animals. This process brought peace in the community of the civilisation. Along with that, they bring out the technologies of the agricultural practices (Joyce, 2013). The introduction of the European methods of farming made me sufficient in exiting the stage of a warrior. With the new technologies of farming of sugar and grain, I found it quite useful in implementing it into working procedure. I started my life as a farmer and changed it to being a warrior. Other than that there were many contributions from the Spanish Civilisation that led changes in my life and my society through which the Aztec Civilization resulted into a peaceful life far from war.
