APPETIZER: The semi-nomadic lifestyle that the Aztecs lived was dependent on a number of resources that they had available to them when they transferred to their different territories that they lived in at different parts of the year. Since they lived in the desert water supplies were scarce to none. In order to compensate for the lack of water, I imagine that they built aqueducts to funnel water from main water sources into their villages and cities. I imagine that they had several different aqueduct systems to adapt to the fact that they moved around different parts of their territory creating this interconnected chain of water sources. These aqueducts could have more beneficial uses than just drawing water from the main sources because

This body of water was very important to the Aztecs because it was the closest constant source of water. This lake would cause surrounding area to be fertile enough to hold a variety of plants than what is normally planted in the rest of the desert conditions. This would not only benefit the food aspect from a view of plants alone but animals that ate certain plants would be advertised to coming to that certain patch of land so that they could eat those crops. It’s incredible to think that one part of an ecosystem is connected to so many other links in this massive chain of sustenance and environments. Take one part away and the rest crumbles. This is an important idea for everyone to remember.
Aztec daily life was influenced by the environment hugely because if it droughted it could have led into the Aztecs not able to produce for everyone. If the environment decided that they couldn’t travel to their designated places for their specific times of the years (because of them being semi-nomadic) they wouldn’t be able to adapt as quickly to changing temperature and weather so that could be another notion that could have completely wiped out the Aztec …show more content…
The reasons I would choose the samurai would be. One of if not their main belief is honor till death, I think that this in and of itself is the sole reason to choose the samurai to be a role model for anyone. Also because the scenery and natural landscape of Japan in the Edo period and so on is truly remarkable and breathtaking. They also believe in the 7-5-3 code. Each number represents a certain amount of qualities in the aspects of being a samurai. 7 virtues of being a warrior, 5 key points in health, and the 3 states of mind that one must have (picture disclosed here: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/04/e9/2d/04e92da0b710c49700c9e2fe5703ccc2.jpg ) I believe that this add so much more meaning to living and gives everyone a sense of why I`ve become a samurai and guidelines on what being a samurai
