Montezuma (Civ4)

Montezuma II (c. 1466 – June 1520) was the ninth ruler of the Aztec Empire. He leads the Aztecs in Civilization IV.
Montezuma was killed during the Spanish conquest. According to the Spanish, he was killed by his own subjects; however, it is believed to be more likely that the Spanish murdered him after he served his purpose to them.
== General Info ==
Montezuma has a reputation amongst Civilization IV players as a psychopath who will almost always declare war on you, even if he is the lowest in score. He trains a lot of units and usually defeats even the most advanced military with overwhelming numbers, so if you encounter him it is recommended to build a large military. Since Montezuma is not good at research, a large and sufficiently advanced army will be able to beat him.
