Auitzotl (o Tlatoani, não o monstro), teve que reconquistar todas as regiões que haviam se rebelado no governo de Tizoc, mas além disso, expandiu muito o Império, deixando-o quase do tamanho que era quando os Espanhóis chegaram.
O feito mais importante de Auitzotl, no que diz respeito à expansão militar, foi a fundação da colônia de Xoconochco, uma região muito distante do corpo Imperial, bem no seio dos territórios Maias, que foi colocada sob a administração Asteca.
Depois da rápida e brutal reconquista e expansão do Império promovida por Auitzotl, houve um longo período de relativa paz, que fez com que começassem a rarear os sacrifícios, uma vez que só os escravos eram sacrificados e, sem guerras, não havia escravos, sendo assim, a República precisava achar uma saída.

Thou hast come to govern thy city of Mexico; thou hast come to descend upon thy mat, upon thy seat, which for a moment I have guarded for thee.
For thy governors are departed - the rulers Itzcoatl, Montezuma the Elder, Axayactl, Tizoc, Auitzotl, who yet a very short time ago had come to govern the city of Mexico.
O that one of them might witness, might marvel at what to me now hath befallen, at what I see now that they have quite gone.

Even more subtle perhaps are the tiger teeth in caves in Borneo: there is no other evidence that the animal lived in that island and it is concluded that the teeth were put there by man.
I hope that with eucalyptus, sloths, femurs, bulldozer herbivores, Krakatoa, brazil-nuts, gomphotheres, coco-de-mer, and Emperor Auitzotl with his great-tailed grackle it is clear that when we are dealing with tropical rain forest, where it survives, we are dealing with the living past.

Tamanho era seu poder, que durante o governo de Auitzotl, convenceram a quem deviam de que a ampliação do Grande Templo fosse realizada no sentido de dedica-lo a Tlaloc e Uitzilopochtli, sendo assim a pirâmide Asteca passou a ser encimada pelos templos de Tlaloc e Uitzilopochtli.
