Ancient history

Where do the Aztecs live today?

There are no living Aztecs today. The Aztec civilization thrived in central Mexico in the 14th, 15th, and 16th centuries. After the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire in the 16th century, the Aztec civilization declined and eventually disappeared. The descendants of the Aztecs are the Nahua people who primarily reside in central Mexico and retain some cultural practices and traditions of their ancestors.
