The Aztec Empire was a renown civilization in the South America Continent.  It flourished from the following period: 1427-1521. The Aztecs began their reign in 1427 after the leader, Itzcoatl, with the assistance of surrounding cities, defeated the Tepanecs and gained control of the Mexican basin. Leadership of the nation was passed on from brother to brother and then to the eldest son of the eldest brother. Leaders were then chosen by religious leaders and people of political power, based on their skills on the battlefield and their ability to speak eloquently. For the Aztecs, warfare had a much different goal than other cultures.  The goal of the battles was not to destroy the enemy and ransack the village but to capture the community and integrate them into the Aztec society, thus providing a much more productive and expanding kingdom. Their warriors are fierce and brave, this tattoo vividly depict such a warrior. Rate This design: (3 votes, average: 5.00 out of 5)
