War was never a big part of Zapotecan religion. The only time when Zapotecs waged war for religion was when the High Priest said that a certain city must fall in order for nature to be balanced. This is completely different from the Aztecs. The Aztecs waged war to get more people to worship their God, Huitzilopotlchi. Every conquered city must convert or be killed. Many people were killed anyways since the Aztecs also waged war in order to get more people to sacrifice. The Aztecs sacrificed so many that they started a whole set of wars, the Flowery Wars, because they ran out of people to sacrifice.Based on the timeline, in which year did war between the two cultures give way to peace is 1496
