Then answer the five questions that follow.  Use the chart attached here to help you determine what issues are political, economic, or social.
When you're finished, go back to the original instructions for the presentation and complete the Partner & Self Reflection questions.  It's best if you go back to the Google Classroom post and type your responses there, or print them.

If absent, you can pick which society you focus on, and you only need to complete the questions related to one.  However, read the documents from the other to answer the final question about what happened to the other group.  
 
Example - if you pick the Aztec, read about Moctezuma and Cortés and answer all of the questions.  When you are finished, read the accounts about Atahualpa and the Inca to give a quick description of what happened to them.
 
Points to focus on:
- Who writes history?
- How is it written?
- What is myth/legend, and what is the truth?
- Did Moctezuma believe Cortés was a god?
- Did Atahualpa hold the Bible to his ear?
