Tlatoani #2
Differently from the huey tlatoani, the “Lord of lords” who ruled over all of the other altepetls in the Aztec Empire, with the title of "Great Speaker", the tlatoani focused more on the needs of their region.
They had the most important position in Tenochtitlan, in terms of political hierarchy. The only people who were able to become a tlatoani were the descendants of the first tlatoani.
Only those deemed worthy of this title were chosen to inherit the throne.
A Council of royal members helped to make this decision by choosing those who had the necessary attributes to reign with wisdom and efficiency.
The tlacochcaltl was one of the most prominent positions in the Tenochtitlan hierarchy, held by men of the royal lineage. When the sovereign died, the new one was chosen among them,
The cape that they wore was called tucucizyo tilmatli.
