When were the aztects?
There is no such word as "Aztects". If you are asking about Aztecs, their civilization collapsed in the 16th Century, but they are still alive today. Most modern Mexicans descend from Aztecs.
What do the Aztecs look like today?
Descendants of the Aztecs today are a mix of indigenous Mexicans with varying physical characteristics. Many present-day Mexicans have Aztec ancestry, but they also have genetic influences from other indigenous and European populations due to centuries of intermixing. It is important to recognize the diversity and complexity of modern Mexican society rather than simplifying it to a single visual representation.
What happened to Aztec's extinction?
The Aztecs never went extinct. The Spaniards did however end their reign of power through a combination of religious, psychological, linguistic, and germ warfare. The Aztecs had no natural defense against these diseases, which were the main cause for their downfall. In total, European diseases and slavery wiped out 90% of America's Native population, which was equivalent to 10% of planet Earth's population. Much greater then the entire continent of Europe. The Aztecs did not die out however, they just became ruled by the Spaniards. In addition, the Aztecs did not call themselves 'Aztecs', they called themselves Mexicas. The modern day Mexicans are either full blooded Aztecs, Mayans, Zapotec, Mixtec, or Meztiso (of mixed blood). Spanish only comprises of 10% of Mexico's population. The Aztecs are still alive and festivals are held to this day. Although Mexicans speak Spanish, the majority of them are natives. Some in fact still speak their native Mexica language of Nahuatl. The true language of the Mexicans.
What year did the aztects live?
They are still alive today. Most modern Mexicans are descended from Aztecs. But their empire collapsed in the 16th Century, and Mexico was turned over to Spanish rule.
Why were Aztecs called the heart eating Aztecs?
I don't believe the Aztecs actually ate hearts. However, they did sacrifice people by cutting out their hearts while they were still alive. Apparently, the still beating heart was a great gift to the Gods! Another little fact is that they also thought that children were the best to sacrifice! The Aztecs may have been called 'heart-eating Aztecs' because, during war, the Aztec soldiers would capture the enemy. After the battle, the prisoners of war would be sacrificed. Seeing as how the priest only needed the heart for the Gods, the rest of the body was untouched. However, the Aztecs also believed it was customary for the person who caught the sacrifice to eat the rest of the body... which is maybe why the Aztecs were called 'heart-eating Aztecs'.
What do the Aztecs made that we still have?

Where were the Mexicans during the slave times?

Where are the Aztecs now?
They live in Mexico. There are still more than a million speakers of Nahuatl (the language of the Aztecs). Most Mexicans have some Amerindian blood from the Aztecs and other native tribes such as the Maya, the Tlaxcala, the Apache, the Comanche, the Navajo etc. The Aztecs although they were defeated are not extinct, this is a common misconception.
