Aztec Knights

[carlosb1]

@DerFeindr Nazis? Nazis committed genocide or systematic killing of human beings, Mesoamerican people did it for religions and was practice both by Tlaxcalans Zapotecans and Totonacs and Mexica in "Mock wars" where the created wars to take warriors for sacrifice. ALso the ball game the winners would be sacrificed.. your argument fails very bad.. do extensive research ;)

[zkjoker666]

@carlosb1 that is a lie, they not sacrifice people; that is a spaniard lie

[KaiserXCaesar]

It has been stated that the most beautiful women/girls were killed to serve the Gods! what a lame story -_-

It would of been great having Amerindian hot chicks around! =D

And was the king supposedly to be Moctezuma? the one who thinks he's the shit?

[pepetrueno1967]

Vencer nuestros propios defectos e indiferencias. Nuestro enemigo no es ajeno, somos nosotros mismos. No culpemos a otros por nuestras deficiencias y defectos. Seamos productivos y no culpemos a los blancos por nuestras culpas. mexico es mas grande que nuestros defectos. Espana vino, nos jodio y se fue, pero ahora son Mexicanos los que nos joden. Seamos mejores y no dejemos que otros piensen por nosotros. Mexico es mas grande que el patriotismo falso.

[canigetanoorah]

Of course the clips from Apocalypto are Mayan and not Aztecs

[DerFeindr]

@canigetanoorah Of course, the portrayal of Mayans is horribly inacurate...

[FOLKFIDDLER14]

When the spaniards came they saw bloodthirsty devil worship and human sacrifice. The practices of the indians were extemely bloodthirsty and grotesque. Who wouldn't think that these practices were primitive and evil. What the spaniards did was bring God to a culture which flayed each other alive and used their skin as drums. The indians would sacrifice each other in tens of thousands and rivers of blood flowed from the tops of their pyramids.

[shiyboy4]

@FOLKFIDDLER14 so u know wat the spanish did? the slaughtered them. they practically massacred an entire civilization, not exactly christian like now is it, look back at history look at how the christians have brought crhist to heathens barbarians and uncivilized peoples, the result was always misery. terrible things have been done to people in the name of god, so u cant say wat the spannish did was good, and i do know wat im talking bout as i myself am Catholic.

[DerFeindr]

@shiyboy4 Dude, you don't understand... the Mexicas actually killed people for their gods, sometimes hundreds of them, taking their hearts out of their chest... try to picture that... and of course they didn't sacrifice their own people (well mostly), no, they killed Tlaxcalans, Zapotecans, Totonacs and people from other tributary states. Do you think these people actually felt bad when they saw the opportunity freeing themselves from the meso-american equivalent of nazis... ?

[AdrianAnansi]

@DerFeindr Ritual sacrifice was practiced all throughout Mesoamerica. All of the groups you named practiced it too and if you actually read the grievances of the other tribes, as recorded in what codices we have, you will see that they were upset about the Mexica's excessive tribute demands, not sacrifice.

[DerFeindr]

@AdrianAnansi Well, of course ritual sacrifice was practiced in other cultures, even in more gruesome ways, but indeed, the combination of everything the Mexicas demanded and the humiliation other states went through was the stone that cracked the pot.

@carlosb1 Looooool, Podrías haberte evitado el mal inglés amigo (tip: checa los canales de la gente, solo tienes que dar un click), claro que sé sobre las guerras florales, y la religion pan-mesoamericana. Comparé a los Aztecas con los Nacionalsocialistas por que ambos mataban gente (y mucha) por creencias sin fundamentos...

[DerFeindr]

@carlosb1 Looooool, Te podrías haber ahorrado el mal inglés amigo (tip: checa los canales de la gente, solo tienes que dar un click). Si hubiera sabido sobre las guerras florales y la religión pan-mesoamericana, ni siquiera hubiera hecho esos comentarios. Además, compare a los Mexicans con los Nacionalsocialistas por que ambos mataban gente (y mucha) por la misma razón: creencias sin fundamentos.

[neuromicron]

Kukulkan is not Tonatiu, Kukulkan is Quetzalcoatl.

[LatinoNinja98]

I'm half Aztec and like 1/16 maya

[gabe2639]

Same

[Wolfen443]

That is not Aztec, That is from the Mayan Sacrifice ceremo0ny in Apocalypto.

[DerFeindr]

@Wolfen443 Well, the Mayans didn't sacrifice people like that, the Aztecs did... The Mayans didn't sacrifice people as massively as the Mexicas, and when they did, they threw virgins into "cenotes" (deep water filled caverns abundant all over the Yucatán peninsula). Mayan sacrifices normally consisted of animals or just bloodletting.

[Wolfen443]

@DerFeindr, I forgot how long I posted something on this video. I do not even remember what I said, but the film could have been used as both Aztec in the Sacrifice aspect and Mayan in the breakdown of the last years of the Mayans. I agree that the sacrifice scene is more Aztec than Mayan for sure, At least we can say that they were more faitfull than the selffish fanatical ly grredy Spanish thatt took over their territories. Where can I find older less "hololywood" types films about it?.

[DerFeindr]

@Wolfen443 Disgracefullly, I don't think that kind of movies exist at all :(

[arrowakano]

do modern tlaxcalans call themselves aztecs? arent they mexicans as well? there are so many different tribes in mex that to call all mexicans aztecs is negating everybody else its like calling all the natives in usa apaches doesnt make sense but this has to start in mexico

[TehSmellulare]

Actually, studies show that the most attractive people are the people who look the most "averaged" in the face (mixed race, right?). Therefore, and in my opinion, Mexican girls are pretty good looking because they are part Spanish and part Amerindian. Cool movie, good story and action but historically inaccurate. Peace.

[georgemrr]

who says these people are ugly.. i think the are beautiful... im atratcted by the mexican girls that are decenden of native cultures... but i dont like white girls.. i think they are ugly.

[georgemrr]

alot of people think that mayan and aztec are the same think... they are diferent cultures that lived in mexico.. we the mexican are decendent of the aztec , mayan and spanish... i havent seen that movie , but i thought it was a mayan movie , not an aztec movie.

[ohnoesfedzilla]

septum piercings FTW

[Skullazzz]

They call their Sun-God "Kukulkan". Its the mayan name for the god, who was called "Tonatíu" by the aztecs... lol braven117... ur foolery is pretty amusing! xD

[loooonggameing]

join andrewsmed2totalwar

pass is 123 JOIN !

patch 1.0 only

[braven117]

lesson # 5 The indians are the fucking ugly face of México

lesson # 6 After "la noche triste" Cortes returned to avenge his fallen comrades crushed all the indians who killed spaniards, marked their faces with a hot piece of iron like cattle and enslaved them.

[saspir]

@braven117 I disagree with both of what you said.

#5, I see no reason for that to be true

#6 After "la noche triste" Cortes and THOUSANDS OF TLAXCALA INDIANDS returned to attack tenochitlan or whatever you want...

[Cyb3rElectr0]

@braven117 ugh, no, there some ugly ass white people and good looking AMERINDIANS SWEETY!

[Perszeusz]

@braven117 The Indians are from India, you worthless crud.

[dracomaster666]

@braven117 Cortes didn't do a shit. He just cried like a little girl and then returned with shitloads of tlaxcalans, only to find the Aztecs were already dying from smallpox and other diseases they brought with them from Europe...

[georgemrr]

@braven117estas pendejo cabron, no sabes nada de historia idiota... los espanioles nunca derrotaron a los aztecas en combate, animal... los aztecas sacaron a los espanioles de tenochtitlan, dos anios despues regresaron y ya la gente se estava muriendo por las enfermedades que habian dejado los europeos.

[braven117]

@georgemrr Fueron sitiados pendejo !!! 12 bergantines en el lago con un cañon cada uno rodeaban la ciudad, el suministro de agua fué cortado, duró meses el sitio, los aztecas no tenían ni qué comer !! Y fueron tan destruidos que Tenochtitlán quedó sepultada debajo de la actual Ciudad de México !!

[georgemrr]

@georgemrr si idiota.. pero eso fue despues de que ya la mayoria de gente se habia muerto de enfermedades pendejo.. estudia hijo de tu puta madre.

[lindomarjoceli]

Mayas?? When I watch this movie, I had absolutely certain that they were Aztcs knights, but historical precision there's not in this movie.

[LobsterPotsticker]

@lindomarjoceli they were Mayan in this movie

they were even speaking mayan..

didn't you read the movie jacket?

[lindomarjoceli]

Maias?? Quando olhei esse filme, tinha absoluta certeza de que eram guerreiros astecas. When I watch this movie, was absolutely certain that they were aztcs Knigths. But historical precision there's not in this movie.

[72Oswald]

Apocalypto is about the Mayans. Not the Aztec. Youre also using the Aztec episode of Ancient Warriors. Everyone knows the Aztec were always way better than the Maya. That's why they don't have a movie.

[69mexicanpride]

@72Oswald The Aztecasand maya had the same belives,.and they lived the same time

[CCCORP1]

clan? or great empire?

[saspir]

....

do you even know what you are talking about?

[ceaserthewarrior]

the guy at 3:55 got owned

[kemalraik]

Why couldn't this have had Total War footage in it instead.

[icedie82]

Yeah the Mayans where way more peaceful than the Aztec.

Any ways saspir clap clap, well done, there is a mod the frontiers that i am sure you would love.

[tapis33]

The movie is not entirely incorrect. the mayas were not the pacific time-watchers some early wannabe historians portrayed them as. They were also warriors as bloody as the aztecs and also performed the same ritualistic human sacrifices. They had to be some kick-ass warriors to become the civilization that lasted longer in mesoamerica.

[TJkiwiOWEG]

well done

[totalwartattoo]

nice movie

[Lennon743]

nice, seen the film too.

[jasperbean11]

[TJkiwiOWEG]
