Ruled the Aztec empire since 1502 According to Juan de Tovar, a Jesuit, “When he spoke, he drew the sympathy of others by his subtle phrases and…by his profound reasoning.” Lived in great luxury Received both officials and commoners into his palace Was treated almost as a god His subjects were not allowed to look at him Though brutal at times, he was said to be a just and effective ruler Page 64 MONTEZUMA
