Answer:

The Aztecs' civilization was ruled by one Emperor or a King, and its government was based on monarchy. All of the Aztec people were united under the leadership of one ruler. Unlike the Aztecs, the Mayans' society was based on a government, as priests ran governments, could rule cities, lead ceremonies and performed many other jobs. The Mayan society separated itself into several different city-states and each had its own ruler, as well as one or more priests helping run its government.

The Mayan was Mexican and Central American settlers, while the Aztecs inhabited almost all of northern Mesoamerica by c. Inca flourished among c in modern Peru and spread to Western South America.

The Emperor ruled over Aztec and was supposed primarily to lead the battles. The Aztecs had to pay the tax from the local leaders and captured people. Inca was governed by the ultimate power of Sapa Inca, the king. Also that emperor was the religious figure of the empire.

Incas as well as Aztecs trusted and adored the sun god. Both of them participated and took part in human sacrifices.
