The Mayan civilization started, flourished and collapsed before the Aztec civilization. Mayas started to establish themselves along the Yucatan peninsula since 2,000 BC and the "classic civilization" collapsed around the 8th and 9th centuries AD. Aztecs found their capital city, Tenochtitlan, at the place of present-day Mexico City on March 13, 1325 and were conquered by Spanish conquistadores on August 13, 1521. Modern Mayans were not conquered until 1697.
