Pa nthawi yokhazikitsidwa pampando wachifumu wa Moctezuma Xocoyotzin, wolamulira wachisanu ndi chinayi wa Tenochca, Mexico City-Tenochtitlan adakumana ndi zovuta zapadera, popeza sizinakhalepo kwazaka zambiri.
M'dera lopatulika, anyamata omwe amayang'anira chisamaliro ndi kuyeretsa akachisi adasesa mwamphamvu pansi kuti awasale akuwala tsiku lalikulu; Mofananamo, ansembe amayang'anira kukongoletsa kwa maguwa omwe amathandizira zifanizo zopatulika, zomwe, zosemedwa pamiyala kapena zosinthidwa ndi dothi kapena nthanga za amaranth, zinali mboni zamtendere za anthuwa.
Kunja kwa chipindacho, m'nyumba, kumsika ndi m'malo aboma, anthu sanabise chiyembekezo chawo chachilengedwe poyambira madyerero, akuyembekezera mwachidwi kubwerera kwachisangalalo kwa asitikali olamulidwa ndi mfumu yomwe yangosankhidwa kumene, yomwe Akadatenga akaidi mazana ambiri ku Tepeaca omwe adzawone kutha kwa masiku awo motsatira miyambo yampangidwe wachifumu.
Chisangalalo chachikulu, ndiye, chinali mumzinda wa Huitzilopochtli; Panalibe masiku achisoni pomwe anthu aku Mexica adalira maliro a wolamulira wawo wakale, wankhondo wolimba mtima Ahuízotl, yemwe wazaka 16 adalamulira ku Tenochtitlan, akupereka bonanza yayikulu ku ufumu wake ndikufutukula malire ake kupita kudera lakutali la Xoconosco, komwe koko wamtengo wapatali yemwe amagwiritsidwa ntchito m'misika ngati ndalama idayamba kufika.
Ahuízotl, "galu wamadzi", adamwalira mu 1502, atatha thupi lake, atatopa ndi ukalamba ndipo adachepa ndikumenyedwa mwamphamvu pamutu ndi chovala cha nyumba yake yachifumu pakuwonongedwa kwa kusefukira kwamadzi komwe kugunda mzinda, sakanakhoza kutenga kenanso.
Masiku achisoniwo adatha pomwe tlatocan, khonsolo yayikulu yopangidwa ndi olamulira akale komanso mamembala apamwamba a gulu lankhondo, adasankha wolowa m'malo mwa Ahuízotl pakati pa anthu angapo: mphwake, wolemekezeka Moctezuma Xocoyotzin, mwana wa Axayácatl, wachisanu ndi chimodzi tlatoani tenochca, yemwe nawonso, anali m'modzi mwa zidzukulu za Huehue Moctezuma Ilhuicamina, wolamulira wamphamvu yemwe anthu aku Mexico adamuyamikira kwambiri chifukwa cha kulimba mtima kwake pankhondo komanso chifukwa chazanzeru zake; Zinali ndendende mbiri yakale yakale yomwe idapangitsa Axayácatl kutchula mwana wake dzina lomweli: Moctezuma, yemwe tanthauzo lake mchilankhulo cha Mexico ndi "njonda yokhumudwitsa", ndiye kuti, yemwe akuwonetsa kulimba mtima kwa nkhope yake yamphamvu pankhope pake. Mexica, kuti imusiyanitse ndi Moctezuma woyamba, adamutchulanso kuti Xocoyotzin, "mnyamatayo."
Pomwe lingaliro la tlatocan lidadziwika, nthumwizo zidapita kukachisi komwe Moctezuma anali kukamudziwitsa za chisankho chomwe chatengedwa. Popanda kudabwitsidwa, adavomera ntchito yovuta yolondolera tsogolo la ufumu wa Mexica, adalandira mawu achikondi ochokera kwa abwenzi ndi abale, ndipo adamvetsera mwachidwi mawu olankhula mokweza a olamulira a Texcoco ndi Tacuba, omwe adamuyitanira ku Limbikitsani ndikupitilira zabwino zazikulu zam'mbuyomu, nthawi zonse kufunafuna Mexico kukhala wolamulira chilengedwe chonse chodziwika.
Monga chochita choyambirira komanso chodzikongoletsa muulamuliro wake wamtsogolo, Moctezuma adasonkhanitsa ankhondo ambiri aku Mexico ndi Texcocan, omwe adapita nawo kudera lachigawenga la Tepeaca kuti akagwire ambiri ankhondo, omwe adzaperekedwe nsembe panthawiyo miyambo yomwe ikadakhala chiyambi cha ulamuliro wake.
Kubwerera kwachipambano kwa asitikali kunakondweretsedwa ndi chisangalalo chachikulu ndi anthu, ndipo adalola Moctezuma kuti apereke ulemu kwa Huitzilopochtli kwa masiku anayi, pamwamba pa kachisi wake, mpaka tsiku loti alandiridwe pampando wachifumu lidafika.
Mmawa umenewo, dzuwa lowala bwino lidawunikira Tenochtitlan wowala, pakati pa nyanja zowonekera. Atsogoleri apamwamba, amuna anzeru achikulire komanso atsogoleri ankhondo adakhalapo pamwambowu, ndipo ngakhale olamulira akunja, monga a Mechoacan ndi Tlaxcala, omwe, omwe anali pakati pa akuluakulu aku Mexico, adayitanidwa kuti akhale mboni za zomwe sizinachitikepo.
Nezahualpilli, wolamulira wa Texcoco, ndi mbuye wa Tacuba, mothandizidwa ndi Cihuacóatl wa Tenochtitlan, mwana wa Tlacaélel wolimba mtima, adavala Moctezuma ndi zovala zomwe zimamudziwitsa ndi milungu yoyambirira: Xiuhtecuhtli, Tezcatlipoca komanso, Huitzilopochtli. Mikanda ya Jade inazungulira m'khosi mwake ndi zibangili zagolide zonyezimira m'manja mwake, pomwe tilma yabuluu yokongola idaphimba thupi lake lolimba chifukwa cha kulapa komanso mkokomo wankhondo zakulanda.
Komabe, kudziwika kwa wolamulira wamkulu kunaperekedwa kwa iye ndi chipolopolo ndi nthenga chomwe amavala kumanja kwake, mphete yagolide yomwe angavale, kudzera pobowola, pamphuno, makamaka makamaka xiuhitzolli, kapena korona wagolide wokutidwa ndi miyala ya nofeki; Zizindikiro zamtengo wapatali zonsezi zidamuvomereza kukhala huey tlatoani waku Tenochtitlan komanso wolamulira madera onse omwe ali m'malire ndi dzuwa.
Zikondwererochi zidakondwereredwa ndi oyimba ambirimbiri omwe adasewera mosangalala ng’oma zawo, teponaxtles, zitoliro ndi mluzu, kutsata magule omwe adachitika mpaka pakati pausiku, ngakhale panali moto wochuluka kwambiri womwe anthu omwe adasonkhana pamenepo amawoneka kuti akupitilizabe kukondwerera pakati pausiku. kuwala kwa tsiku.
Monga gawo loyamba laulamuliro wake, Moctezuma adadziwitsa khothi lake kuti kuyambira nthawi imeneyo ndi okhawo achinyamata omwe angawonetsere mzere wawo azimutumikira, kuchotsa anthu wamba omwe adagwirirapo ntchito maufumu am'mbuyomu.
Pambuyo pake, Moctezuma adayamba kugonjetsanso anthu omwe adagwiritsa ntchito mwayiwu kuti adzauke, kuti agonjetse zigawo zatsopano, pomwe adakhoma misonkho yambiri; Ndi zonsezi, adakwanitsa kupangitsa dzina lake kukhala, mkati ndi kunja kwa ufumuwo, chifukwa cha mantha ndi ulemu.
Imeneyi inali miyambo yomaliza yolamulira ku Mexica tlatoani yomwe anthu okhala ku Tenochtitlan adaganizira. Moctezuma adatenga udindo wake monga chifanizo chamoyo cha mulungu Xiuhtecuhtli, ndikupangitsa ulemu kwambiri womwe umayang'anira zochitika zam'nyumba yachifumu; palibe amene akanamuyang'ana mwachindunji kapena kumufulatira. Olemba mbiri ku Europe amatchulapo zojambulidwa patsamba pazomwe amachita tsiku lililonse komanso makamaka pankhani zovomerezeka ndi zamwambo; Mwachitsanzo, sanagwiritse ntchito kachiwiri masuti omwe adavala komanso zotengera pomwe amadyera.
Tlatoani wachisanu ndi chinayi m'mzera wachifumu ku Mexico-Tenochtitlan akumana ndi tsogolo lake pamsonkhano womwe adachita ndi Hernán Cortés ndi gulu lankhondo laku Spain lomwe adamuperekeza, pagawo la mseu wa Iztapalapa, koyambirira kwenikweni kwa likulu la Aztec; kumeneko mfumu yachirengedwe ikanalandira woyendetsa ndege waku Iberia mwaubwenzi, osakayikira kuti munthawi yochepa adzafa mochititsa manyazi kumayambiriro kwa nkhondo, yomwe ingafike kumapeto mu 1521 ndikuwonongedwa kwa mzinda wake wokondedwa ...
