Aztecs called themselves the 'Mexica,' hence Mexican people. You won't find indigenous information on any people called "Aztecs." This might help to understand their route. *They lived in Teotihuacán originally . @ 600AD *Then they settled in Aztlan, but that city is still undiscovered (believed to be somewhere along Mexico's northwest coast) @ 1100AD *The Empire also consisted of the Tollan (Tula) - people known as the Toltecs--early --the above regions would still be claimed / used during the height of the Empire. The major city for the Aztec Empire, known to them as the Triple Alliance, was 1. Tenochtitlán-- after a name the Aztecs used for themselves, Tenochca 2. The city of Azcapotzalco, which they acquired after the fall of the Tepanecs 3 & 4. They acquired the above territory on the shore of the Lake Texcoco and formed an alliance with 3. Texcoco and 4. Tlacopan, the Triple Alliance.
