an indigenous group that extended from northern to central Mexico.
One empire that inspired the Aztecs were the Toltecs. They resided in Central Mexico, were very violent and had a state based on military power (basic structure of Aztec government/ society). Their legacy ended because on internal power struggles and military threats from the north of Mexico- the Mexica people, who acquired power by political alliance and conquest.The Toltecs greatly influenced the Aztecs.
Hernan cortes conquered them becuase of their wealth (gold). This would help his country and himself. Very difficult for them to attack Tenochtitlan. Tried once and failed. However once some natives became allies they were able to conquer them. After being attacked, many natives decided to fight back and killed many Europeans- makes Europe angry.
