How the Aztecs became a Striving Civilization

At first, there were a group of people called the Mexicas who had lived on a land called Aztlan. The Mexicas had gotten and order from their sun/war god Huitzilpotchli to leave their land. The Aztecs had traveled many miles until they had thought they had seen the sign from Huitzilpotcli. It was a sign on an island, the sign was a eagle perched on a rock with a snake in its mouth. Once the Mexicas saw this scene they new it was the place to stay. Since that moment on,they became one of the greatest Mesoamerican civilizations of all time.

  1. Wait, a cactus an a rock with a snake in its mouth? Isn't it a eagle on a cactus with a snake in its mouth? If it is, is that the picture on the mexican flag? Are the Mexicas and the Aztecs the same group of people? Otherwise, your blog is awesome!

  2. Haha thank you for correcting me! And yes it is the symbol that is on the Mexican flag. Also, the Mexicas and the Aztecs are the same group they had just changed.
