So, the human sacrifice was real. Just, it was less of a sacrifice and more the exact same strategy of ruling as in a German KZ or in the Roman Empire based on fear.
The Mayans or Atztek were also not infront of their time, but way behind being stuck on a stone age technological level until the Conquistadores came to end the slave trade and tyranny by brute force; The only argument they took.
They actually founded Police as we know it today. European coltoure does not know privileges of arms possession in any other times but tyranny and surpression and used Gendarm (Gen d'arm, men at arms) defending human rights being especially dedicated to arms use practice and training. These men destroyed the Roman Empire, turned Knights and took down Feudalism. We will also destroy Nations, just as your Reich.
Their calendar is quite unprecise and extremely complicated. Our modern Gregorian calendar needs every four years an additional day to not move out of the four seasons rhythm with winter at about December and came into effect in 1582, is easy to understand and calculate.
The clapping sound was from the run-aways that made it into the jungle and native American people had comparable means of warnings from the slave catchers.
In no other region Slavery persisted as long as in the Americas.
Until today Slave Masters are around.
We have not wiped them out.
We have not wiped them out.
Yet.
