Before Spanish conquest, the Aztec economy was based on farming, trade, war and tribute, which were all used to increase the wealth of the Aztecs. Politically this style of economic system helped contribute to the Aztecs downfall and made them susceptible to conquest because:
  1. The Aztecs were poor farmers and could not produce enough food
  2. The Aztecs turned many of their neighbours into enemies who allied with the Spanish
  3. Much of the wealth the Aztecs accumulated went to pay the army and the Aztec economy could not grow
  4. After the Aztecs plundered all neighbouring tribes, those tribes were left destitute with nothing left to trade.
