WH Chapter 7 Aztecs
The document provides an overview of Aztec history and culture. It describes how the Aztecs migrated to the Valley of Mexico in the late 1200s and founded the city of Tenochtitlan on an island in Lake Texcoco. Through conquest and alliance, they built a large empire across much of Mexico by 1500. When the Spanish arrived led by Hernan Cortes in 1519, they found Tenochtitlan to be a magnificent city with wide avenues, temples, and floating gardens. However, Cortes eventually defeated the Aztecs and destroyed Tenochtitlan, rebuilding it as Mexico City.
Egyptians vs Mesoamericans
Ancient Egypt and Mesoamerican civilizations like the Maya and Aztec shared some surprising similarities despite being separated by half the world. Both built pyramid-like structures for religious purposes, had calendars with 360-day cycles and harvest festivals, and respected women's roles more than other ancient societies. They also both believed their rulers had divine status and had comparable pantheons of gods despite developing independently.

It discusses the locations and landscapes of these civilizations, as well as some of their major cities. Key cultural aspects covered include architecture, agriculture, mathematics, calendars, and religious practices such as human sacrifice. Photos accompany the text to illustrate examples of artifacts, structures, and terrain related to each civilization.

Aztec and Inca Civilizations
The Aztec Empire originated in Mexico in the 15th century, establishing their first capital of Tenochtitlan. The Inca Empire began in Peru around the same time, establishing Cuzco as their capital. Both empires grew powerful through conquest, with the Aztec Empire reaching its height under Moctezuma and the Inca Empire under Pachacuti.

Chichen itza
Chichen Itza is an ancient Mayan city located in Yucatan, Mexico. It was founded between 325-550 CE by Mayan groups and expanded upon with the arrival of Toltecs around 800 CE. The site contains many structures from this period including a main pyramid dedicated to the feathered serpent god Kukulcan and other buildings estimated to have been constructed between 435-455 CE. At its peak in the late classic period around 987 CE, Chichen Itza was a powerful political center in the Yucatan region, with its architectural complex spanning over 15 square kilometers.

1. An agriculturally-based economy focused on cultivation of crops like maize and cacao using techniques like slash-and-burn and terracing.
2. The development of large, religiously and politically centralized cities and city-states like Teotihuacan with tens of thousands of residents.
3. Hierarchical social structures with distinct upper, middle, and lower classes and gendered division of labor.
4. Advanced mathematics, astronomy, and writing systems developed by cultures like the Maya.

Civilizationsof North America: Mayan Civilization , Aztec , Mesoamerica , Olmec

Many advanced civilizations developed across North America, including the Olmec, Zapotec, Maya, Toltec, Mexica (Aztec), Mississippian, Anasazi and others. These civilizations built large cities and structures like pyramids, and made contributions in astronomy, mathematics, medicine, engineering and more before Europeans arrived.
WH Chapter 7 Olmecs and Mayas
The earliest American civilization was the Olmec civilization, which emerged around 1400 BC along the Gulf Coast of Mexico. They built ceremonial centers rather than cities and are known for their colossal stone heads. The Olmecs invented the first calendar and form of writing in Mesoamerica. Between 300-900 AD, the Maya flourished in southern Mexico and Central America, building great cities like Tikal with towering pyramid temples and palaces. They developed advanced agricultural techniques, hieroglyphic writing, mathematics, and an accurate solar calendar.

Kashmir Ppt
We respect views of all those wanting peace and prosperity for humanity entangled in these troubled times.

Where are they now? Who controls their property in Kashmir? Why are the Muslim majority in Kashmir increasingly demanding freedom from India when it has always been part of India... These are vital questions that needs answeres... and then there are practical reasons too, why Kashmir must stay with India

Why Content Marketing Fails
Rand Fishkin discusses why content marketing often fails and provides 5 key reasons: 1) Unrealistic expectations of how content marketing works, 2) Creating content without a community to amplify it, 3) Focusing on content creation but not amplification, 4) Ignoring search engine optimization, and 5) Giving up too soon and not allowing time for content to gain traction. He emphasizes that content marketing is a long-term process of building relationships and that most successful content took years of iteration before gaining significant reach.

And people around the world apparently agreed, as more than 100 million votes were cast on the Internet or by text messaging. The final results, which were announced in 2007, were met with cheers as well as some jeers—a number of prominent contenders, such as Athens’s Acropolis, failed to make the cut.
