How did the aztecs use trade to increase their economy? (be sure to cite specific examples from your lesson in your answer.)

In the Aztec society, which relied heavily on crop-based agriculture, economy developed itself in two different, independent spheres: the first sector consisted of the upper-classes exercising their power over the lower-classes through the conveyance of land access via land leases (the leases implicated in the payment of tributes to the landlords, and, therefore, the main foundation on which the State’s funds were built); and the second sector consisted of regular commerce, in which all sorts of products were exchanged, from crops and animals to jewellery, rich fabrics and even slaves. This sort of commerce was very intense, and it even established transactions with other parts of Central America, fundamenting quite a solid economy.

Hello,

The correct answer is

The Aztecs took over other tribes which lead to slavery. The Aztecs sacrificed slaves for the gods they worshipped. They thought the gods needed human sacrifices to stay healthy and happy. During these ceremonies, the slaves would have their hearts taken out while they were still alive.

Hope this helps :)
