I think I would make a disservice to history by trying to summarize it, so I just bluntly copied from this link:
"Based on these codices as well as other histories, it appears that the Mexicas arrived at Chapultepec in or around the year 1248.

At the time of their arrival, the Valley of Mexico contained many city-states, the most powerful of which were Culhuacan to the south, and Azcapotzalco to the west. The Tepanecs of Azcapotzalco soon expelled the Mexicas from Chapultepec. In 1299, Culhuacan ruler Cocoxtli gave them permission to settle in the empty barrens of Tizapan, where they were eventually assimilated into Culhuacan culture.

In 1323, the Mexica asked the new ruler of Culhuacan, Achicometl, for his daughter, in order to make her the goddess Yaocihuatl. Unbeknownst to the king, the Mexicas actually planned to sacrifice her. As the story goes, during a festival dinner, a priest came out wearing her flayed skin as part of the ritual. Upon seeing this, the king and the people of Culhuacan were horrified and expelled the Mexicas.

According to Aztec legend, the Aztecs were shown a vision of an eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus, clutching a snake in its talons. This vision indicated that this was the location where they were to build their home. In any event, the Aztecs eventually arrived on a small swampy island in Lake Texcoco where they founded the town of Tenochtitlan in 1325. In 1376, the Mexicas elected their first Huey Tlatoani, Acamapichtli, who was living in Texcoco at the time."

Note to extend this: The Mexicas were basically banished to the worse place possible, which lacked food, was full of venomous snakes and they were exposed to attacks in a mud-like barren land.

In fact, the snake has a direct relationship to the harsh realities of their banishment (basically venomous snakes) and how they conquered over that land (Tenochtiltlan, the Venice of America).

Plus their origin and how they decided to flay their host's daughter has always made the Mexicas/Aztecs my favorite evil empire.

Goku would bring the ring to Mordor on foot, take the whole season, then straight away give it to Sauron. They will fight, Goku would lose, then Sauron would kill Krilin and Goku would defeat Sauron.

The end.

This was not a triumph.

I'm making a note here, huge mistake.

It's hard to overstate my disappointment.

Being rich will make you beat the odds of an early grave.

I recommend “M: Man of the Century” as a cinematically gorgeous and scary portrait of Mussolini and his rise to power.

I hope no Viking sees that palisade.

How much is that in salt?

Did you add butter from Mount&Blade?

Everything's computer now
