The Aztecs were a powerful empire based in Tenochtitlan who practiced human sacrifice of prisoners in their religious rituals. Their emperor Moctezuma enjoyed drinking chocolate. The Aztecs fought battles with the invading Spanish led by Hernan Cortes, but were ultimately defeated after contracting European diseases, with Cortes destroying their capital Tenochtitlan and taking many slaves. The invention of milk chocolate later improved the taste of the popular cocoa drink.

2. The Aztecs were violent people which sacrifices prisoners. Tenochtitlan
became most powerful place and the Aztec’s game was not about having
fun because people that lose will get punished to die.Moctezuma,the Aztec
emperor kept lots of cocoa beans and tasted the drink chocolatl which the
Indians mean warm liquid. They spoke Nahuatl. The empire lived about
100 years. The Spanish were bitter enemies of the Aztecs.

3. They had a cruel battle. The Aztecs managed to get the Spaniards away from Tenochtitlan. Not long
after, the Aztecs got diseases like smallpox. Later Hernan Cortés came back and ruined Tenochtitlan.
1000 died and 1000 were forced to be slaves.

4. Henri Nestlé and Daniel peter invented milk chocolate for the first time to make it taste better. Now
there are more flavors.
