The main city of the Aztec Empire was Tenochtitlán. Founded in 1325 on an island in Lake Texcoco, it became a major cultural and political center. The city was known for its impressive architecture, including temples and palaces, and had a complex system of canals and causeways. Tenochtitlán was eventually conquered by Spanish conquistadors led by Hernán Cortés in 1521.
