The Aztecs were a fierce and powerful culture in ancient times. They made many important strides in art, religion, and medicine as a thriving culture. Their economic tribute system helped to support military operations. The tributes also helped rulers and leaders to stay wealthy. However, the Aztec empire did not last forever. The empire fell in the early part of the 16th century.
