Who are the Aztecs and Mayans?
The Maya are an indigenous people of Mexico and Central America who have continuously inhabited the lands, comprising modern day, Yucatan, Chiapas in Mexico and southward through Guatemala.
The capital city of the Aztec empire was Tenochtitlan, now the site of modern-day Mexico City. Built on a series of islets in Lake Texcoco, the city plan was based on a symmetrical layout that was divided into four city sections called campans.
