The Aztecs were fierce warriors, incredible architects, and experts of time and space. When the Spanish washed up on the shores of the Aztec Empire, they feasted their eyes on the Aztec capital, Tenochtitlan. Tenochtitlan squashed the misconception that indigenous people lived in mud huts with little impact on their environment. This booming metropolis was the largest city the Spanish had seen up until this point. Learn how the Aztecs rose to power and their conflict with the Spanish conquistador, Hernan Cortez.
