Capital city of the Aztec Empire, until its fall at the hands of an alliance between indigenous and Spanish. Although there is no complete agreement on its etymology, in Nahuatl it seems to be an eponymous : "The Place of Ténoch" (which was a Mexican Tlatoani). It is also called Tenochtitlan, Tenuchtitlán, Tenustitlán or Theonustitlán.
