Instructions:Select the correct answer. Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés wrote the following excerpt in a letter to the Spanish king: The inhabitants of this city pay a greater regard to style in their mode of dress and politeness of manners than those of the other provinces and cities; since, as the Cacique Moctezuma has his residence in the capital, and all the nobility, his vassals, are in constant habit of meeting there, a general courtesy of demeanor necessarily prevails. Based on the excerpt, what can you conclude about the inhabitants of Tenochtitlan? They were afraid of Moctezuma II. They were very shallow people. They were considerate and stylish. They were unaware of cultural differences.
