The Aztecs were a militaristic society whose culture revolved around their polytheistic religion, featuring gods like Huitzilopochtli (god of war and the sun), large-scale human sacrifices to sustain cosmic balance, and grand temple-pyramids such as the Templo Mayor in Tenochtitlan. The Inca Empire emphasized communal living under a centralized government while worshiping Inti (the sun god) as their primary deity, conducting ceremonies at sacred sites like Machu Picchu, and practicing ancestor veneration through mummification of rulers.
