The traditional name of the Aztecs is "Mexica." They referred to themselves as Mexica, which is derived from their mythical homeland, Aztlán. This term is often used to distinguish them from later colonial and historical interpretations of their identity. The Mexica established the Aztec Empire, which thrived in central Mexico from the 14th to the 16th centuries.
It was the Mexica who fought the Spanish not the Aztecs, but what made the Mexica sick of the Spanish was as soon as the Spanish got there they had a meeting with Motecuzuma of talks about peace, that's when the Spanish held Motecuzoma hostage and that's when the Mexica took up arms to defend themselves against this new threat to their civilisation.
