Histeria's Aztec Laws

[@Leesoldier12]

And they say Hernan Cortez was cruel

[@thehansens3437]

They never mentioned the most common punishment of all (Heart amputation)

The Hansens show for children

RIPPING OUT A FUCKING HEART

[@dwaugh2215]

the censored lady probably cut that part out due to the rules of being a show for children.

[@XenosX4]

when the girl at the end when she got of key she said HELL

[@raellmoreland2373]

Hatty Hattington it says he’ll not hell

[@knightlykin1499]

Times were crazy back then. Aztecs cutting out hearts, European crucifixions, Mongolian invasions, Chinese invent the gun. Like dang. Did people hate each other that badly back then? haha I mean I guess it's no different today, but at least it's slightly more humane due to rules of engagement.

[@Igarappappa]

And there are people who want to get rid of even taht.

[@magmat0585]

couple of reasons. 1. Someone stealing had a much bigger impact than today, stealing someone's food or tools could result in starvation or them being reduced to begging, which also would mean eventual starvation. There was little to no safety net. In the US today, we have so much that the homeless have an obesity problem. 2. For a large chunk of ancient history, might made right, and if you were at the top, you wanted to maintain order so you would stay at the top, new things and chaos put you at risk. Example, lots of nobles in Europe had issues with the growth of the merchant middle class, who while not nobles, had more wealth than the nobles sometimes, especially when they pooled resources, and thus were used by Royalty as a counterbalance to noble's traditional powers. 3. Finally, remember there were no video games or tv, executions and public punishments were entertainment back in the day. They were object lessons on what not to do, and broke up the day-to-day grind.

0:45 song of the Volga boatmen

[@uttiboii4168]

Fun fact: if the you were a slave in the the aztec empire you can marry when your done and have your own slaves

[@Chuked]

*FUN* *FACT*

[@sturmgewehr4471]

That is if you survived

[@tanimation7289]

I guess that is what they called children back then.

[@cutiepatooty123]

***** Disney did not make this Warner Brothers did. They had their own channel on TV for a while and had this, the Animanicacs, Pinky and the Brain, and (I think) Tiny Toons.

[@leaderofatrueschool3]

Y'all fail to realize that this is a cartoon for children and THATS why it's so over the top...don't be dense

[@kevp9601]

Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes It Is, Friend. :-))

[@arhr2713]

At 0:45, the song in the background is the song of the Volga boatmen

[@5P4RT4N115]

yeah its history

[@powerist209]

About the "reduced sentence", was it mocking Lawyer (as in judge having more power) or Aztec's harsh law (like only merciful sentence was hard labor).

[@TheJiminatorHS]

I think a bit of both, mostly column B.

[@nonogin5280]

Chocolate egg, AGAIN!

[@Naiobia]

Did i just learn a new thing about the aztec from a kids cartoon?!

[@AtarashiNOhi]

Well, they do have episodes of the American Civil War, the Watergate scandal, Dr. Martin Luther King and the bus boycotts.

[@diamondinthesky4771]

I wish it'd be easier to find all the episodes of this show. Like, you can find them but it's never all of them.

[@PhoenixAngel429]

They have the whole series on dvd on Amazon. It's about 35 bucks last I checked.

[@rachelklueck9264]

I thought there was an Aztec Lord of the Night out there.

[@onanestudios8604]

[@vanesameisen722]

im soooo thankfull yu subbed a lot of your videos because i can use them in classroom. can you do that with this or the one about Mesoamerica? Many thanks anywaY!!!!

[@MareyaReyaDick]

@98kemik After the Spanish arrived, they influenced many of the native Aztecs. They taught and forced them how to speak Spanish [European] and made them learn Christianity.

[@irreligiousidiot3541]

Mareya Dick Mainly Catholicism. The English tried to do the same thing.

[@froggermeister6399]

“Influenced.” Or in other words, enslaved or murdered, those who survived had the grand opportunity to learn the language.

[@outrageddeer2101]

@@froggermeister6399 like the aztecs did to the sorry SOBs before them

[@prixe12]

​@@outrageddeer2101 Just because they did it doesn't make it right that's like me saying it's okay for me to murder and sexually assault people because serial killers do it all the time.

[@NCXitlali]

That is soo exaggerated but it is true that the Aztecs had very strict laws.

[@emperorofwar1]

Why did they randomly put Ey Ukhnem in the background at 0:47?

[@danieliglesias7119]

emperorofwar1 its halfway fitting, even when the aong ia russian

[@Mafon2]

It's the song about hard labor.

[@kevp9601]

AWESOME!

[@98kemik]

why would moctezuma have a spanish accent if he never spoke spanish

[@Keroscene89]

0:13 Moctezuma* lol

[@jeffherringbone4751]

Look You many laws!

[@panowa8319]

I wonder if the character playing Larry H. Patoltec is patterned after Phil Hartman?

[@stephenholloway6893]

Maybe and probably voice wise Phil Silvers

[@Kronington]

What's the music at 0:29

[@Reagan1984]

Song of the Volga Boatmen

[@alexcorvuscazador5596]

Holy Molly this makes the spanish way more reasonable in comparison, even the spanish inquisition in more than 400 years actually only excuted around 1500 to 2000 if I am not mistaken and you would have to either rebel or insult a noble (or normal examples of crime like robbery or murder) to get executed or be setenced to forced labour for life, they did not even have slavery. Not that it justifies the bad stuff of course they were pretty brutal in some aspects but dear God never like that. I am aware its overexagerated,but theres a reason many other tribal confederations allied with the europeans to bring them down, aztec law and specially warfare and religion was specially brutal. I have read more for myself after wathching this video and oh my Quetzalkoalt.

[@OnyxXThePunch]

This actually misrepresents the Aztec extremely tbh
