Us, the Mexica have left Atzlan and have entered the Valley of Mexico. We are being called barbarians by the other people just because we are nomadic. Right now, we are serving as mercenaries for other city-states in the valley of Mexico. Life is bad but it could be worse.
You are barbarians!
One day, we were serving for a city-state when one priest told us that we would build a beautiful capital on the spot where we found a eagle eating a serpent on top of a cactus growing on a rock. Determined, we decided to set out to find this sign from the gods.
I don't think so!
One day, you will find the sign no matter what.
At last, after searching for a long time, we found the sign on an island in the middle of Lake Texcoco. We decided to start building our city here. There is hope!
Oh my, is this true. It really is!
Guess I was wrong!
Construction has started on our new capital. We are building it on an island and soon, it will be a beautiful city. We will dig a system of canals in the city and start farms.
Let's start building!
Yeah!
Our capital is now complete! It is called Tenochtitlan and has many canals and chinampas which our farms on top of water. We have so many things to trade from fish to spirulina. Amazing!
I love this city!
Tenochtitlan is a beautiful and very powerful city. We are thriving. Never thought that we could create a city on an island in the middle of Lake Texcoco! Don't forget the delicious spirulina.
