The Founding of the Golden Empire From its creation, linked to the legend of the eagle and the snake, to its decline, the Aztec Empire has a lot to tell: a thriving market, an efficient education system, the smart use of local natural resources, battles for power, and bloody religious rituals. All this allowed the Aztecs to develop their power and become really powerful! The captivating story of the Mexicans’ ancestors And a journey into the period of colonization!
