1. Determine the civilization you would choose to live
in—Aztec, Inca, or Maya. Write a complete paragraph
explaining your choice, using at least three facts from the
lesson about life in that society.
2. Write a complete paragraph explaining why you did not
choose the other two civilizations. Use at least one fact from
the lesson for each civilization in your explanation.
I already chose incan I just need the paragraphs writen
Answer:
I would choose the Aztecs because the Aztecs were known for their agricultural achievements, which included farming all accessible land, establishing irrigation, clearing marshes, and constructing artificial islands in lakes. They invented hieroglyphic writing, devised a complicated calendar system, and constructed world-famous pyramids and temples. The empire had nearly 6 million people which would mean it was somewhat like a city today, full of people to meet and make friends with. Because of the Olmec influence, I know it is a very advanced empire for its time. Even tho some of the religions involved human sacrifice, not all did which makes the civilization open to having other religions
the reason I didn't choose the other two civilizations is that the Incas were very separated due to ethnic reasons. meaning they could work out the problem. they also have human sacrifice as a part of their religion, which goes against all my morals so I definitely wouldn't be comfortable living there. the Incas also had very strict social classes which was never a good sign because, they will treat people in the lower class very poorly and give all the goods to the people in the higher class meaning there is little to nothing left for the people in the lower class to afford, buy, eat, and more. The Mayans didn't reach my expectations because there were only 2 million people in the empire which is still a lot but it is still very little compared to 6 million. The Mayans also had human sacrifice and blood-letting as a part of their religion which again is not ethical to me.
Explanation:
i got the first part from the other person
According to some theories and popular beliefs, Inca civilization are way better than other civilization like Aztec and Maya.
The Incas were always the greatest, even though they did not follow the Aztecs' savage cannibalistic traditions.
They are well-known for their ability to adapt to the environment in which they lived.
What is a civilization?Civilization is a society or group of people or the process of achieving a higher state of social development. An example of civilization is the Mesopotamian civilization.
The Incas have been the finest since they lacked the savage cannibalism of the Aztecs and Mayans, Inca didn't do anything at all to offend the Spanish, and they were amazing in how they adapted to their surroundings.

Comienza la película en los astilleros, aparece un año: 1815 y dice, 26 años después de la Revolución Francesa, vuelve haber un rey en el trono de Francia. Busca a qué rey se refiere, sintetiza el momento político de esos años.
La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.
