- Cortez received a beautiful gold necklace from Moctemuza when he arrived in the capital city.
- When conflict and distrust happened between the two, a battle was started. Moctemuza was killed in the battle.

Prison Labor

We could use prison labor to help our society because we need to put them to use and we can use the help because I doubt if they have anything better to do. I just think that we shouldn't let them do anything that deals with something that they can mess up, take/steal, or gives them any opportunity to do anything bad. Though, I do think that they should get rewarded in some way for anything they accomplish. They could help us because we need many things done to help our society now-a-day. Plus, they aren't just helping us, they are helping themselves, because if and when they get out of jail, if they try to get a job when they get out of jail, it would be easier and more possible for them, and helps get reduced time.
