  • Since the last ice age (23,000 years ago) people began to inhabit the lands of present-day Mexico.
  • The first civilizations to appear in Mexico are dated back to 1500 BC.
  • The Aztec people settled and built their capital, Mexico-Tenochtitlan on the Mexican highlands in 1325.
  • Spanish conquistadors conquered the Aztecs in 1521, annexing "Mexico" as an overseas colony of Spain.
  • Mexico, the country, began to function as an independent nation in 1821.
