Best Answer

The current territory of Mexico was discovered by Spaniards. They waged war against the indian tribes and empires who inhabited the territory, such as the Aztecs, Mayans, or Purepechas. By the time all native tribes had been subjected, the Viceroyalty of the New Spain was established. It comprised all the territory of modern day Mexico, Central America, the Philippines and most of the western part of the United States.
