Answer:
The Aztec Empire was an entity of territorial, political and economic control that existed in the central area of Mesoamerica before the Spanish conquest and colonization. It was located in the center of the Valley of Mexico.
According to oral tradition, the Aztecs should create a large city where they found an eagle devouring a snake perched on a cactus. In the year 1325, those in charge of leading the Aztec spirituality, found this scene on an islet near Lake Texcoco, and there they created the city called Tecnochtitlán.
