Nothing except for their remarkable story. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this book, we discuss their enigmatic origins and how the Aztecs rose from nomadic tribes to the dominant power in Mesoamerica at an astounding speed. You'll wander the streets of their great capital city of Tenochtitlán, known as \"the Venice of the New World\" among the Spanish Conquistadors, who spread the term all over Europe. You'll discover the full extent of the city's splendour, visiting its many market stalls, smelling fresh chocolate and vanilla pods. You'll indulge in a taste of ripe, hand-picked avocados and freshly baked corn tortillas, as you decipher Náhuatl, the language spoken by the 50,000 merchants who visited Tenochtitlán every day. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eYou'll probably wonder how this great city, built in the middle of a lake and isolated by two of Mexico's highest mountains, Iztaccihuatl and Popocatepetl, could ever be defeated. From the arrival of the first Spaniards in 1519 to the eventual fall of the Aztec empire, we'll talk you through the major battles that eventually led to its fall. We'll uncover lies and deceptions in the alliance with their neighbouring cities of Tetzcoco and Tlacopan. We'll also look at Aztec legacy on the world today: how Tenochtitlán became the basis for the capital of the New World and evolved into today's Mexico City. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eSome of the topics and questions covered in this book include: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Origins of Aztecs: A Tribe Destined for Greatness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Unwelcome Arrival in Mexico Valley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Rise of Tenochtitlán and the Triple Alliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Greatest Aztec Kings and Their Heritage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Splendor of Tenochtitlán\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Guided Tour Around Tenochtitlán\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRites, Rituals, and Delicious Recipes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Fall of Tenochtitlán\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd a Great Deal More that You don't Want to Miss out on!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGet the book now to learn more about the Aztecs!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11249418\"\u003eCaptivating History\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/12\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.21d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781978231436\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1978231431\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS002000\"\u003eAncient | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44562468274413,"sku":"9781978231436","price":15.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_0f9e967d-3449-4cce-9b15-178f39b0bc01.jpg?v=1701831779","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/aztec-a-captivating-guide-to-aztec-history-and-the-triple-alliance-of-tenochtitlan-tetzcoco-and-tlacopan-9781978231436","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
