What was he Aztecs religion like in comaprison to ours today?
Religion.
Like us today the Aztecs had a religion. It wasn’t like Christianity or anything, their religion was based around their gods. Unlike many religions today the Aztecs believed in many, many gods. They pretty much had a god for everything, rain god, fire god, war god etc. Back in the time of the Aztecs they made Human sacrifices because they believed that, that was the way to repay their gods for creating the Earth and sun.

Today no human sacrifices are made as that would be inhumane and wrong. The Aztecs had many festivals and celebrations, today it’s not so much like that. We have fewer celebrations to celebrate the very special days of the year, like Christmas, Easter, birthdays etc.
