Tenochtitlan -The Venice of Mesoamerica (Aztec History)

Motorcycle diaries

Mexicas not aztecs

That's why I admire Great Akexander, he conquer but admired and respected other civilizations he didn't destroy their History

Cortes himself called it “The City of Dreams” and said it was without a doubt the most beautiful thing in the world

There's no way the Spanish conquered the Aztecs. I refuse to believe it.

Great video. The Aztecs were a warrior tribe that were ferocious and non-bending. Many tried to stop the Aztecs but failed and later were vassalized by the Aztecs.

Assassins Creed PLEASE do your thing !! 😫

How could the Europeans destroy entire cultures, like the Aztec one, is terrible to think. They thought they were in the right position, but they killed millions and destroyed too much…

WE ARE ABORIGINAL PEOPLE OF TURTLE ISLAND

I think it were a beautiful city. Unhappily the spanish destroyed it.

Cannibals

This is very interesting and helps with our learning. Thank you.

Mexico is possibly the best located country on this planet. It's full of resources. It breaks my heart daily seeing the current status of Mexico City being overpopulated

visiting Mexico City was one of the highlights of my travels... not to be missed

I read 3 books about aztecs. Do you believe wether or not the aztecs had crime?

I feel honoured for the way you just spoke about what is now the city I live in. Accurate information with great descriptions. If you don't mind, I'll play your video for my English students so that they can make a comparison with the current layout of Mexico City. Thank you so much!

I like the video, I can see how much research and work was put into it, specially because it is very hard to learn the closest to true history since the Europeans deliberately deleted as much as possible of the codex of the cosmic knowledge, Ill give a 7 out of 10, which is a great score being that history of the mexicas is being rediscovered

PLEASE DO A VIDEO OF THE “NEPOLHUALTZINTZIN” which is the mesoamerican computer which is UNBELIEVABLE

THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK 🙏✨

Cool

How about the Aztec calendar for the next video!?

Imagine if the Spanish never came for another 150 years and the Aztecs had the horse and gunpowder this side of the world would be completely different so proud of my history

​@yamao4938 Typhoid, cholera, are literally diseases you get from filthy disgusting living quarters. Dysentery is another disease you would get from disgusting living conditions. The first vaccine was given in 1796, and it was for small pox. Spaniards made contact prior to this date with the Mexica. Mexica is there actual names not Aztec. So immunity built up from ancient vaccines is bulls😢hit because prior to 1796 vaccine did not exist for anything.

From the Macuahuitl to the lost cities, gold, high stakes ball games & sacrifice, I know it would have been awful to be a part of it but what an amazingly, bizarre culture. Check out a Novel named "The Aztec". I really enjoyed that mystical fiction. Thanks for the vid.

Well done!

Venice of the America's? It was 12 times the size of Venice! It was larger than Paris and London too.

I know this is really late but could you make a video on the mayans ? This video was so good , just discovered your channel and you describe everything perfectly. A lot of videos about mayans all say the same thing but your videos are so different! An experience!

And of course the pink white sunburnt people ruims everything blacks and browns did.

Do like the ancient Aztecs did with their large lake Texcoco and turn the California's Salton Sea into a fresh water lake. Start with pumping several small pools of water to separate the salt and other toxicants from the fresh water and lake based floating islands filled with green mangrove trees and plants and vegetables. Eventually over time and with help from the floating island mangroves you can pull out the toxics and salts and what remains is fresh water and also grow good game fish and Salamanders. If the Aztecs can do this almost 1000 years ago, we can also do it.

Never ignore the peaceful, teaching Giants depicted everywhere

My great grandfather built an empire bigger than the Aztecs over 100 years ago. 😂

These guys had water management, urban planning, and a transportation system at a time when in Paris people were filled with disease and were pooping in buckets throwing them in the streets.
And somehow, the ppl with shiny buildings were the ones that were savages.....

Imagine where they would be if Spaniards had just shared their knowledge and gotten the fuck out of there

The book of Mormon explains what America was like when nephites and lamenites came to America around 600 bc

Tenochtitlan la Venecia de América.
Cusco la Roma de América.

Funny how you show paintings of Pale skinned Aztecs. The Aztecs were very dark skinned people.

This guy aces the pronunciation

Wish Mexico City was replaced by huge lakes

Great documentary!

amazing

Excellent, I would like to see an overview of how the lake disappeared and was filled in with its population.

You really comparing this to Venice? Lmfaoo Venice could never!

It did not survive because the Spaniards considered the Aztecs as pagan and witnessed appalling things by European standards. Many of the Aztec temples and places of worship were destroyed and built over by churches or cathedrals. To the Spanish this civilization had to be erased and the people converted to Christianity.

Now lets talk about aztec human sacrifices in honor to their demons

Why did the Spanish destroy the city? You would think that they would keep such an impressive place intact as a prize of their conquest and a center of their expanding empire.

This would be a great assassins creed game

Man, I really wish cameras were invented earlier! Yeah we have detail descriptions and drawings, but a picture would do the city more justice.

very good

gotta have a come back

How so? Where do you get your facts? Why slander, assume or portray false facts if you don't know for sure to rewrite history?

1. How can the tribe that migrated from chicomoztoc be called Mexica right off the bat?

2. How can you say this 1 diaspora "" the Mexcia did all this you say, when I DEBUNKED the first part

I'm going to ask you to remove this fairytale of your slander to respect this diaspora before we return the favors in story's of yalls
