Their empire was conquered by the Spaniards in 1521, but Aztec culture has left a lasting mark on the Mexican way of life. The Aztec empire was established in less than a century. It encompassed the Valley of Mexico, a huge oval basin about 7500 feet above sea level. Although the valley is in the tropics, its high altitude gave it a mild climate. The land was divided into numerous small states. Eventually, the entire area was united under an emperor... The Aztecs were fierce warriors who believed it their duty to sacrifice the people they captured in battle to their gods. On a gentler side, the Aztecs composed music, wrote poetry, and were skilled in medicine. " |

When the Spanish arrived in Tenochtitlan, the Aztec capital [now Mexico City], they were impressed by the beauty, order, and cleanliness of this city of 150,000 - 300,000 inhabitants. Its size ranked it as one of the largest metropolises in the world at the time. This favorable impression vanished when they reached the great ceremonial center. The immense enclosure contained several dozen temples, the largest being the Great Temple. The Spaniards were shocked by the blood-soaked steps and the terrible smell. In fact, the inauguration of the Great Temple in 1487 was celebrated with splendid festivals where thousands of victims were sacrificed in four days. " |
