The Aztecs dominated large parts of Mesoamerica from the 14th to 16th century. The Aztec people were ethnic groups of central Mexico. "Aztecs" often refer to the people who built and lived in Tenochtitlan (present-day Mexico City). They founded the city in 1325.

"Aztecs" can also encompass residents of other major Aztec cities, Acolhaus and Tlacopan, the three of which formed the Aztec Triple Alliance over the next 100 years and controlled the Aztec Empire until the early 16th century.
