The Aztec world is about to change!


Looks like nobody understands about who this culture is. The Mayans are long gone when the conquistadors landed in Central America. We're going to see a major change about the Aztecs that impacts United States!

Mayas were not gone. Look up Conquest of the Yucatan Peninsula.
And Mayas are still there today

The Maya STILL exist.

Absolutely! And, the Mayan Civilization was mostly centered on the Yucatan Peninsula. The Aztecs were found mostly in central Mexico. The Aztec and Maya had very similar building constructions and cultures. Fascinating study.

They were not that similar
It's like comparing ancient China to ancient Japan
