pretty cool.

imagine living in a city on the water, the food grown on little islands made 7-8 times more food than the land surrounding it, thats one of the main reasons they became so powerful.

also, the king had a bath made into the side of a mountain near his palace; constantly being filled with fresh water, he could see his (if I remember right something like 40 acres) garden.

that is SO much cooler than a hottub in suburbia

aztecs Were not powerful. They were fighting with rocks and sticks while the Spaniards came in with muskets and cannons. Phail. Also, the aztecs were very stupid, they thought they needed to kill people just to make the Sun come back. When I was 5 years old I knew the concept of the Sun and no one ever had to explain it to me, come on now.

^ are you that stupid. these people bathed on a regular basis, unlike the `intelligent` Europeans who believed a layer of dirt will protect them.

the Spaniards had those guns and cannons for less than 3 centuries, and they didn`t invent them, the concept was brought back from China.

Europe was conquered by militant and religious groups many times over during its history, the fact that Christianity became its `main` religious is mostly chance. The preists drank a mix of opium bugs, cannabis leaves and a ton of other psychedelic drugs, no wonder they had a fucked up view. yet look at it this way, they were richer and cleaner than all Europeans, and they built a city of 200 thousand quite literally ON A LAKE! so... Aztex>Spaniards. the only reason they all died was because of their cleanliness, they never had to face small pox. Also they didnt have alchol.

you hvae just been told

I am sad you would be so complacent to excuse the Mass genocide that the Spanish did on to my Ancestors.

lol mooseman, so do you think killing for a God, is more intelligent than killing for Gold ?
ooo wow, city on a lake...ever heard of Venice lol!
Also I think your China statement might be incorrect too, the Turks are also another source.
The Catholics didn`t get RANDOM people and condemned them to death, they imposed laws Atleast. And Catholsism was against science aswell, so we were Dumbed down.

They didn`t have alcohol? I clearly heard that an advancment in Rank meant they could drink Spirits.
Also if you think they didn`t abuse narcotic substances based from Cactus you`ve gotta be kidding me & cocaine is a New World Drug or so I`ve heard @_-.

Bathing on a regular basis, has nothing to do with Intelligence.. I know Bimbos who bath 4 times a day & they`re still stupid as sin. Also living on Drinking Water, made it very easy to just Plop in the lake, and come out clean, so figuratively speaking, these people drank their own Urine,Dirt and bacteria. Now Unless they invented the shower Gel..bathing is no Big hat. Drinking Water was more scarce in Europe.

They were also Richer, because sitting benieth their Buddies were Gold mines, so all they did was Go to war, plunder and then cut their hearts out while still beating ...and not 1 or 2 ..the whole fucking village, the rest were made slaves..if anything, which contributed to the Pyramids.

And Building Pyramids is no big hat either, its a very old idea that if a building is Triangular and not rectangular it is harder to build, more pleasing to the eye and defentily God Worthy. And is not really technologically Superior to older Baroque Cathedrals, with circular domes which is harder to build than a triangular building.

Its true though that they died of their cleanliness, not the fact that they were clean (ROFL so why is the common cold so common nowerdays we all wash everyday)...but because they bathed in the lake were they all drink from.
So they were drinking not only their urine, but bacteria.
So Smallpox did not only travel by lets say ..Air, but also by washing in filthy closed water which most probably carried out most of the small pox epidemic`s work.

What are you gibering about.
200people vs 200000 aztecs plus others....
are you mad!
Sticks and stones break bones if thrown by a party thats 10^3 bigger than yours.

Although genocide committed by the spaniards or other european nations in other parts of the world is unforgivable, the aztecs weren`t much better. They just didn`t have the technology to kill people on a larger scale. The fact is that all nations are assholes, every single people has crimes to answer for.
