The two most important civilizations in our history, were the Aztec, and the Inca's. Both civilizations contributed much to our modern day society. For example, both had harvested great crops, that are still eaten today. The temples,and buildings created by them still stand tall, and they will forever be remembered. The two civilizations vanished when the Spanish arrived. Hernan Cortes led his men to go into the Aztec empire. He was in search for gold, and such. He was welcomed in the empire by Moctezuma II, because the Aztec's believed that he was a god that was there to help them. However, their fate was twisted as Cortes attacked them. The Spaniards had more advanced weaponry to use against the Aztec's and the Aztec's simply had a spear and a shield. The time of the Aztec's came to an end.
    The Inca empire was another group of people located in the depths of Mesoamerica or modern day Mexico. The Inca's had also grown and lived well. They grew crops, and traded with others, so it was normal for them. As the Aztec's, they were attacked by the Spanish, and killed. Some of them went into slavery.
