I built my concept map on the Aztec Empire and what they have contributed to modern day society. This fascinates me greatly because it is so hard to create an understanding of how they were able to build the society they did, with the tools and technology that was at hand.

The Map is circled around one topic, the Aztec Empire, with many examples of innovations/discoveries branching off in all directions. My mind sees it this way because all of these things were an outcome of the Empire that the Aztecs created. From these there are a few examples that branch off into smaller items. In a few case while building the map I noticed that these smaller branches directly correlated with each other so it got a little messy trying to link them together as well.

To finish the Map, I tried to show how the Aztec Empire directly impacted the modern day society. They may not have given us the exact tools we use today, but they formed the foundations for future creative minds to create the things that we use every day.
