Why there were so many diverse societies in the americas before europeans arrived?

 Even before the arrival of Europeans in America, the native people already have political and economic structures and even developed diverse social structures due to the fact that the Aztec a Empire influences and spreads all throughout the large scale in Northern American culture. This maize introduces the greater urban density and led to diversification of societies in early Americans.

There were so many diverse societies in the Americans before Europeans arrived because indigenous populations were shaped by the climate and geography of their society.

Further Explanation:

Before the arrival of Europeans in the Americas, there were hundreds (if not thousands) of different indigenous populations with their own customs, languages, traditions, societies, etc. One of the biggest reason behind this wide variety of societies was their climate.

For example, the indigenous populations of the current day American Southwest (Hohokam, Pueblo, etc.) were extremely limited in their water supply due to their location in the desert. This is why these tribes developed complex irrigation systems. Without these irrigation systems that used water effectively, these tribes would not have survived.

On the other hand, indigenous populations in the Great Plains region were forced to live a more nomadic/hunter-gatherer lifestyle thanks to the cold temperatures and rough climate of the Great Plains.
