Answer: Explanation:

Aztec economy was a tribute system.

There principal strengths were political dominance without exerting direct authority over their subjects and concentrated power and wealth in the Aztec capital in Tenochtitlan.

However, Aztec had major constraints which were rise of nobles and terrorizing the citizens that led to social stress.
