Tenochtitlan was the capital of the Aztec Empire before it was conquered by Hernando Cortez, and became what we know today as Mexico City.
The Aztecs settled in the Valley of Mexico, which was surrounded by mountains and had a system of interconnected lakes. The area provided fertile land for agriculture and natural defenses against invaders. The Aztecs built their capital city, Tenochtitlan, on an island in the middle of Lake Texcoco.
Soon after the Aztecs arrived in the Valley of Mexico in the A.D. 1100s, they controlled all the land in central Mexico between the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific Ocean, all within 100 years. The Aztecs were such a powerful civilization that they conquered many lands because they were so warlike. Tenonchtitlan, their city, was a very peaceful place, but the Aztecs themselves were a warlike people.
"Mexico" is the name of a city, a state and a country.
