One positive geographic feature was that the Aztec capital, Tenochtitlan, sat on islands in Lake Texcoco.
Why: the lake provided natural defense (harder for enemies to attack), abundant water and fish, and—most importantly—made chinampa agriculture possible. Chinampas (man-made fertile islands) produced very high crop yields, supporting a dense urban population, surplus food for trade, and the manpower needed for the Aztecs’ armies and state administration.
