I have studied quite a bit of New Mexico history. The Pueblo Revolt began August 10, 1680. Popé (Popay) among others ordered that all Christians be killed including all baptized Native Americans. What Spanish and Christian Native Americans did not escape to El Paso TX fled the Rio Grande area. By November 5, 1681 Governor Otermin led an expedition into New Mexico. Verbally I was told that Otermin found that Popay had been deposed (or possibly killed?) in a dispute with the Native Americans due to his harsh rule, Later made worse by the drought that affected the area. The Native Americans that remained also found themselves unprotected from the raiding tribes in the vicinity. It is possible that the Spanish were invited to return as I was once told. Evidence of this is that Governor Diego de Vargas returned to Santa Fe unopposed in September 11, 1692 with settlers. These are politically unstable times in the pueblos and obtaining a clear picture of what happened must take into account who you are talking to.

Yes and No. Tenochtitlan was the capital of the Aztec Empire (1325 - 1521).

After Mexico's War of Independence, Mexico City still maintained its status as the most populous and important city of the new country, and thus became the official capital of Mexico.
