I'm from Mexico! The Aztecs were called Mexica but they were just three city-states which were Tenochtitlan, Tetzcoco, and Tlacopan.
Mexico is not the world. Deutschland is Germany in German. Let's correct the world now. SMH.
Historia verdadera de la conquista de la Nueva España (transl. The True History of the Conquest of New Spain) is a first-person narrative written in 1568 by military adventurer, conquistador, and colonist settler Bernal Díaz del Castillo (1492-1584)
@@NYFreemanfuck are you on about
The "tripartite" confederacy.
@@jesusrivera577Bernal Diaz de Castillo was the oficial writter from Hernan Cortez expedition.
You said the whole story, but you start in 1519, and the Aztecs story began much earlier. This is the story of the Spanish conquest, not the Aztecs whole story or truth.
And the did not build no temples those temples was already there when they was running away they was slaves and they ran into the jungles you must know the full history of
That's cuz European scholars and anthropologists know more about everyone than they could ever know about themselves and they can decipher pictographic characters from an unknown language into English words 🤦🏽♀️🤬💯
Let's be patient with ignorant people. They so lazy to tell the real history,
Exactly. All MesoAmerican tribes are ancient peoples. Their agricultural prowess cannot be told in less than an hour, let alone their entire history. Racist video
Why do t the indigenous people do a u tub documentary of the truth as they see it 😅😊 since these people are ignorant and lazy 😆
I can't imagine how much was lost in translation and misunderstanding because they spoke different languages.
Or because of the things the invaders destroyed, stole and hid. 😮😮😮😮😮
@@lorenzo2534 the Spaniards definitely destroyed a lot of information.
Im tired of these historians only putting emphasis on the Conquest and not the whole story of the Mexica people. There's so much more about the Mexica that has never been told mainly because the Conquistadors destroyed most of the writings and structures of the Natives.
What a world we would have if this education system were adopted by Western Europeans. 31:17
The legal system would create tremendous oder and safety. 33:05
Cleanliness, adultery, divorce, marriage,
Blood sacrifice 36:12 I think we could without that😂😂😂
As a descendant stemming from Jalisco, still a mestiza, it’s so interesting to learn about the excrement cleaning system they had. All we learned in school was about aqua duct system developed by the Romans. Never learning about a history so related to me.
Do you know your ancestry? Huichol or Nahua? Nahuatl was the language that was most commonly in use by many tribes and spoken too in Tenochtitlan. A lot of current "Spanish" words are from Nahuatl, like chocolate. There were hundreds of different tribes in Mesoamerica and I wish we could do DNA to check for the different tribes.
@@mjz16 Yes, thank you. I’m one of the lucky ones where my family taught us properly on our indigenous roots. Every branch seem to all be of a Uto-Aztecan group.
If your a descendant of Native Americans then say that and not “mestiza” you never hear Jews or Africans calling themselves some mix of yt blood to describe themselves
@@jsandoval3226 She is Mestiza. Specifically mixed European and indigenous blood. But I bet foremost, she refers to herself by her nationality. Creoles call themselves that because they are mixed. Other groups do too. “Native American” as it’s used in the US is not so other places. They’re isn’t the obsession with race in Mexico as in the US or other places. Many people in Mexico don’t even know what race is. You ask them what race they are and they think your asking their nationality or the geographic area they’re from.
Indigenous people of Mexico weren't fat. They didn't eat sugar, wheat bread, pork, oil, noodles nor rice.
Facts we didn’t get fat until recently lol
Chocolate
@@lilphilosophy481 pure chocolate is bitter, not sugary lol
Uh… what? You were there too? Please enlighten the rest of us.
Nor did they drink cokes on the daily like they do now.
Thank you! I’ve been desperate for some quality History!
Told by Caucasians 🤭 maybe try learning from actual natives of the land
@@WaffleSauze I’ve done that too, but since I’m on RUclips in Massachusetts and not chilling in South America, listening to documentaries and reading articles is what I’ve got.
What a weird comment
I'm Mexican, and this is terrible history. 😅 just laughable. Mexicas were not more advanced than Europeans. The best scholars in the subject are not German. The best ones are obviously Mexican and Spanish because they have all the sources right there.
To much misinformation on this video.
@wafflesauze ,You dummy you do have internet access
PLEASE…read the book “Aztec” by Gary Jennings.
Aztec autumn .
Mexicas
I’m so glad someone else posted this. Aztec by Gary Jennings is absolutely epic. A stunning piece of literature!
My favorite book of all time.
Thanks for the recommendation! It’s fiction right?
I found an audio recording and will listen during my work day 😊.
Aztec means people's from aztlan, they called themselves Mexica. 'Aztlan' the mythical origin place of Aztecs
It’s not mythical , it’s a real place and it’s in Guanajuato
@@X.Y.Y.X Since the Spanish destroyed 99% of our History we will never really know … Most evidence points to North America, but that scares the yt man 😂
Uta-aztec. Utah Aztlan
Thank you!
I need to visit the Great Pyramid in Mexico city
It's not really that impressive. Was probably more impressive in the time of the Aztecs
Great stuff
The mezoamerican warriors used cotton pad armors, the eagle warriors n the jaguar warrior used overails painted n adorned.
20to 40thousand a day, that is simply amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why don't mention about cuahotemoc the nephew of Montezuma who was ascended as tlatoani after Montezumas murder. Although he was also hanged by the order of cortes for some allegations of treachery 😢
How much truth can one outside the culture tell the truth. Study yourself. APTTMH
Im Withe the New Aztecs, Mr Yaki.
You want to know true Aztec history talk to an Aztec!!!
No longer around

Can you publish a documentary about Ludvig II, the Swan King in English Dub, please 🙏?
The narration audio is too low compared to other audio.
Agreed .. he's whispering like it was an ASMR vid
The question is how did they understood each other. As far as language
As a Mexican thank you for this. But people should start calling them how they called themselves, Mexica, and not by the made up name giving to them by a European archeologist in the 1800s.
Ahuevo tu si sabes!! Aztecas was who were from Aztlan.
And who call them Aztec at first, please?
@@Cleeon some anthropologist in 1800s. His reason being that mexica & mexico were too similar & thought people would mix them up so he started referring to them as aztec, people from aztlan. It makes sense but it isn't what they called themselves.
@@tacossouls392 where is aztlan?
Hmm... Thank you, I just know about this knowledge, but that reason, for foreigners like me, when you tell me about mexica, at first I will remember Mexican or the people of Mexico nowadays, not that long distance people or ancestors in Tenochtitlan past ago
This is ass . There's better documentaries out there..
As a mixed mexica ... all my family is from veracruz and most light skinned
But always 1000% mexican
I read the book in Spanish. It's beautiful 😍. Can not remember what is the name because of so many books I have read, I remember that he said that Montezuma had sex with someone he knew and said that he was diform because of the blood sacrifice he had to do. I felt sorry and as you seen I remember that about the book.
🙌🏽✨
It’s Mexica, hence Mexico, not Aztecs. They never called them selves that in their own native Nahuatl tongue. Stop using terms coined by their enemies and foreigners.
De hecho la palabra Azteca se refiere a alguien que viene del Aztlán.
Another woke soyboy redefining history.
Exactly, colonizers are going to tell us about what they made up. Not actually the true history. Reporting it for misinformation
As a Mexican with an Aztec last name, you guys are wrong and right at the same time

If you want to know the history of the Aztecs read the Book Aztec by Gary Jennings
That's a fictional novel based on fictional characters and plot sequences. Daily Life of the Aztecs by Jacques Soustelle is probably one of the best and thorough reads into Aztec/Mexica society.

Latinos are not the indigenous people of America. They came from Spain.

500 kilometers a day? Impossible even in a relay style situation...
indeed, i had to listen to it again. impossible
Extremely difficult… highly unlikely in a real world situation (terrain, altitude)… but not “impossible” with relay runners
@@larryromberg5695 not even on a flat surface let along in a highly dense rainforest in mesoamerica they had to watch out for poisonuss crawlers and all kinds of dangerous stuff. its impossible man, 50 kilometers a day sounds more reasonable
@@pres5049 Well... you can base your judgements on what “sounds more reasonable“ to you, or you can research and rely on known facts about human physiology and motivations, elite runners’ speed over relatively short distances, the topology of the region, and mesoamerican road and relay networks.
The fact that your “reasoning”... assumes they were LITERALLY running through a “highly dense rainforest” (i.e. the vegetation itself!?. ...much of the Aztec empire was not rainforest, and they had a well-maintained road system)... and... “poissonuss crawlers”... and concludes with the ludicrously (LOL!) low number of 50km per day...? (Not to mention the assertion that it would be “impossible” on a flat surface!)
As I said, very difficult, HIGHLY unlikely that it was ever achieved in those real world conditions, but not “impossible”. (And certainly not WILDLY overstated, as you seem to assume.)
Or... you can go with an uninformed stab at what “sounds more reasonable” to you. Most people do. 😉
I'm sure that's is 500 metres for each runner
The Spanish weapons sure help the 20K+ "allies" defeat Montezuma and his people.
And my ancestors the Purepecha aka Tarascans whipped their butts in battle 😁
Purepecha here, proud and honoured to identify under the banner of our heroic Mexica brothers and sisters. Since 1519 the true and only common enemy of all the mexicans is foreign colonialsim!
Tribalism is stupid becasue it keeps us weak and divided agaisnt the true enemy
Yeah the Michoacán indigenous people did huh they were brave also but don’t get it twisted Aztecs took a lot of your people too
3:13 whattttttttt
It's ridiculous to make a documentary about the Aztecs! Excuse me, I meant to say, the Culhua-Mexica Tenochca. Why make a documentary when EVERYONE in the comments is already an expert?
☺️ Native Americans did not look Sicilian PS Sicily looks beautiful this time of year
Before the Aztec there was a different civilization in a great city called Teotihuacan
Sounds like some not to happy corrections, they named them after their holy land that they were promised & in search of, AZTLAN.
The aztecs did have a lot of gold it was lost or the aztecs hid the gold
The one world 🌎.
500km in a day??? 😬😬😬😬😬
Mexico has asked Spain and the Vatican to apologize for the violent colonization of the former land of the Aztecs (Mexica) and Mayas almost 500 years ago.
So ridiculous even the fact that was asked, leave it Lopez Obrador to make Mexico a laughing stock
Why should they??
Lopez obrador simply exploits and hides behind a pro-indigenous narrative only to maintain the mexicans who do not know the true decolonized version of their history completely manipluated and dominated.
Obrador is not mexican! He is a criollo (spaniard)
And Spain responded by telling lopez that the "Mexicans w Spanish surnames can start apologizing first". 😂
Makes sense cause most Mexicans are Mestizos therefore are the descendants of those Spaniards that Lopez Obrador was criticizing.
They can keep the apology! Give us our gold, silver, historical artifacts and people back...
Damn this made my heart hurt, i can feel what my people went thru. Your own people betraying your country....just to almost be extinct
They captured neighboring tribes and ripped their hearts out as a sacrifice to their gods. How do you feel about that? Watch Apocalypto, great movie.
Yes that is how life was back then. @user-yv9fq5ym9w
They appeared out of nowhere is what really got me laughing 😅. Why don't they just admit it.
Aztecs didnt have pigeons
WE ARE ABORIGINAL PEOPLE OF TURTLE ISLAND
Why it must be eagle 🦅 again, as the icon of great nation... Hmmm

The only place called AzTeca ( el azteca ) is the soccer field
When they built the church over the temple site, it was just like grinding the entire Aztec civilization into the dirt, the dogs
European has conquer it.
It's not on the temple site, it's west of it. It's in the temple precinct.
@@vasil12361 yeah I know that it’s close enough though
@@vasil12361 so you think they had so much respect for the Aztec culture they decided not to build it completely over the temple because they were sensitive about that civilization they just destroyed , Hell no just where they ended up building it to get to the using the rocks for the church.
Later , Mr Yaki.
Apocalypto is my favorite movie of all time
That was the mayans
Love that movie too😅
They were a late coming people who crossed the Bering Straight in canoes sometime after the year 200 AD. They made landfall somewhere in North America and then slowly migrated south into what is now Mexico.
Strangely enough their language has odd similarities with the Basque language. An ancient people living in an area in Spain near the border with France.
Nahuatl: tomatl, aguacatl, huarachl, tapete, amaca.
The Yakis , they survive because of the , new mexicas like me.Thsnks to us Dont come for us , Germany
Tome vergonha e se coloque no lugar se uma pessoa sacrificada. Ia gostar muito...
Well, you have a problem Bub... If getting Factual is actually your thing... Aztec is something that is named after a myth, and was never used by the natives. It is just as wrong as forgetting or not knowing that America is a Continent, not a Country. What you are calling Aztec was actually the very real and undeniable Mexica Empire. Have some respect and before you send out your info, please, do learn the facts.
With that reasoning Australia is not a country. Yes America is a country and along with Canada, also a country, they make up the continent of North America
@@Victorxfactor The only thing you got right is the use of the coma. Canada, USA, México, Greenland, Bermuda, The Clipperton Island, San Pedro y Piquelón are part of the SUBCONTINENT of North America, only stupid people call a subcontinent or a country a continent... Usually the same stupid people who can't understand the difference between "One thousand million" and a Billion, because their brain can't handle basic math.
To bad they destroyed the books before they knew that their diseases would decimate the people & thus their culture . Perhaps they would have preserved the writings had they known that .
The Aztec's were in the stone age, The Spaniards were in the iron age with muskets, cannons, ships, horses, War dogs, other meso America tribes that had their own wars in the past, with the Aztec's fighting a long side with the Spaniards, before that war in 1521 started half of the Aztec population had already died from disease's introduced by the Spaniards.
Sweet Mary Mother of Joseph!
The multitude of factors that went into the downfall of our Aztec society and, the rest of the meso America is crazy and Sad.
Stone age? Hardly. They didn't have firearms o cannons but they were advanced metalworkers, especially with silver and gold. I haven't seen any metal tools being spoken of or found but they had had tools and weapons that had more than worked for them at the time. Too bad they didn't decide to take the Spaniards' weapons from the get-go. History would be very different. They trusted them too much and had strong sense of the right ownership. .
@@mjz16 but you know whats funny if that happened i definetely would disapear from existence like in back to the future. im pratically indigenous looking and my DNA turned out to be 60% spanish
Looks like they had better education than ours
Well, they were not any different than any other civilization around the world practicing cruel rituals to the gods. So, they were just like everyone else.
🤣
Ask Europe and the Vatican.

It’s Chichimecas
The reason why they couldn’t find gold was because the Spanish took it all and lost it in ship wrecks!
Why aren’t there any documentaries being made with the correct history ? Sounds like you all can’t agree on your own history just from reading comments? Maybe set the record straight for a change.
Los Aztecas, Los Aztecas, Los Aztecas.-
Again so many claims are wrong in this video 🤦🏾♀️ very disingenuous! Disappointed that these people doing these videos never ask our tribes they just run with the colonists version. I can read this in their writings upon their arrival with malicious intent towards our ancestors.
The degree and definition of "civilization" is a matter of perception and perspective.
How can the archeologists find very much gold 😂😂😂. They stole most of it. 😮😮😮. Invaders did a swelll job of this.
Lost me at “Spanish “ Spain didn’t exist till the 16th century.
Spain became Spain in 1492 with the final victory over the muslims by Aragon and Castile. Technically the Kingdoms of Aragon and Castile united in 1715 after the War of Spanish Succession and the signing of the Decreto de Nueva Planta.
Tenochtitlan may have originally been the Land of Nod where Cain built a city and named it after his son, Enoch......aka T-Enoch- titlan.
I am no way listening to this Anglo Saxon interpretation of the Mexica
the children of the sun were the Incas. don't just put any title
All downhill since the Europeans arrived in the West.
Meanwhile African Americans nowadays claim they were all black with kinki hair
In history, never lets european into your land lmao...
Thats 300 miles a day ain't no way
Not a competent portrait of reality according to the comments.
if 75% of the worlds cuisine came from Maso America... how was that only 500 years ago somebody's timeline is fucked up because this just tells me this is where it all began ...🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why compare two cultures if not to create divisions? Why not just focus on the Aztec, for the sake of the Aztecs? Obvious European hatred.
Because those two cultures came in to contact.
what the hell everything she’s talking of the Aztecs later called mexicas it’s nothing near the truth 🤦🏻
Cannibals, menudo..😂
No one has the complete history of none of them your fooling yourself by thinking that .
Ideologia de fanáticos ignorantes como qualquer outra.
Misinformation. The Spanish derived from the roman empire. An empire that brutally conquered most of Europe, Asia and parts of Africa. The Aztec empire was 80,000 Square feet while the roman empire was 5 million Square feet. The Spanish also were at war with the Dutch as Spain invaded the Netherlands and the dutch fought heavily for freedom. The dutch were master craftsman that had trade with China, Japan, India and Africa. The dutch mastered metal work, weapons, ship building, and had girls and boys educated. The Spanish were fighting to keep control of the dutch which is why they only sent 500 men. On 22 August 1567, Fernando Álvarez de Toledo, 3rd Duke of Alba, marched into Brussels at the head of 10,000 troops. This is not ignoring the long standing wars between Spanish and the English. As king Henry killed his first wife a Spanish princess. The vast amount of wars the Spanish were involved in during this time meant volunteers went to the Americas not well trained soldiers. Currently the dutch, the English and the French were at war against the Spanish, the Russians, Polish and the slovic countries were holding back the ottoman empire thst was taking many European countries. That's literally why the trade between Asia and Europe stopped, the ottoman empire was taking over Asia and pushing into Europe. The slavic people were being enslaved. Slave, slav. It's called that because the slavic Slave trade lasted 1500 years. Hungary, Romania, Kosova, Morocco and turkey were all European countries. The ottoman empire took over Egypt and slaughtered the original people. It was all out war all over the globe and the Americas was a last ditch effort to gain the upper hand. Also, no one ever said the Aztec were faster than horses. Cortez literally said that they messages were delivered by runner and they could run 260 miles in a day. A great feat for one so small. The Aztec were average 5'2. It would be insane to assume they ran faster than horses.
80,000 square feet is about an acre. Are you nuts?
The same story of the Bible they tod they they are gods.
I refuse to believe that any of this so called ASTEC glory is true.
Millions of tons of rock on top of a lake ?
C'mon...😂
They were not black!!! As some people claim.
The Spaniards smelled, that’s the first thing the indigenous people said. These Spaniards were on a ship for weeks so yes, I do believe that they smelled.
Not to mention wearing all they did into a hot and humid area
Well yeah they were on a boat for a long time. Plus europeans had poor hygiene back then. That boat probably smelled like a hamsters cage.
rumors say the modern ones still smell lol its a joke we have that they shower only once a week
Well why is it the white telling the story?
Because this documentary sponsored and researched by Germany maybe?
In fact all people allowed to do it, even some African can do research to Italy and Italian freely do research to Asia
I haven’t watch this documentary but I hope they say the truth about cannibalism. 😂
Yeah and it was never Mexico until after it was colonized by foreigners
