Explanation:

Moctezuma Xocoyotzin was Tlatoani of the Mexicas between 1502-1520.

Moctezuma Xocoyotzin, son of Axayácatl and Izelcoatzin, daughter of Nezahualcóyotl, was the ruler of the Mexica city of Tenochtitlan whose domains were extended to the cities of Texcoco and Tlatelolco from 1502 to 1520, upon the arrival of the Spaniards. He was elected after the death of Ahuízotl, who died during the flood of 1502. He was elected military chief during military campaigns of Ahuizotl. Already elected, he maintained an energetic policy even towards the internal and implemented mechanisms to focus power on his person. In order to structure his domains, Moctezuma organized the empire in various provinces, created a solid central administration and regulated the tax system. At the moment of receiving the power, the alterpetl (señoríos) submitted numerically were many and taxed high economic burdens, but were scattered in geographical areas containing enemy regions such as Tlaxcala, some manors of Xoconochco and Purépechas, so he focused his device military to the subjection of such powerful altepetl, which ultimately did not succeed.

monarchy doesn’t have to have the hereditary element. there have been elective monarchies in the past where you choose your king-for-life and when he dies elect someone else for the job.
