The Mayan religion was Polytheist, and they worshiped more than 165 Gods. The Gods were human-like. The Gods were born, grew up and died. Gods would do other human like activity that was deemed acceptable behavior. This included: creating, planting and harvesting maize, performing divination, conducting business, fighting wars, forming alliances and intermarrying. This behavior led to the Gods having interrelated jobs within their hierarchy.

The Mayan religion believed that most peoples souls’ were vanquished to spend their afterlives in the underworld. Even the rulers souls’ ended up there. Only those who died at childbirth or were sacrificed would have escaped the underworld. Sacrifice was conducted using blood-letting (ritualized cutting) performed by the community, but run by the priest. The underworld is filled with with evil Gods, represented as jaguars, the symbol of the night. The jaguar was also shown on the Kings helmets.

Why might Washington have considered political parties based on geography to be dangerous ?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Such parties would create regionalism in the country and sacrifice the unity of the country.

Explanation:

Washington understood that in a federation like Us there was an importance of political unity to keep the federation and its different states to stick together.

Regional parties could take care of the needs of their own specific region but it would also mean that the parties would not care for others and might sacrifice their interests.

This would result in discord and even could lead to the partition of the country which Washington did not want so he was against the idea of regional parties.
