Originally, that was just a tiny little rock outcropping, just like a piece of crap land that –

They couldn't imagine anybody could live on it.

So they send the Aztecs there.

Well, the Aztecs are looking for this prophecy.

And the prophecy says that they'll know where their promised land is, proverbially, when they see a serpent and then an eagle come down and clutch the serpent and fly away with it.

That's why we have that imagery of the serpent and the eagle.

So when they get out there, there's this snake on the rocks.

Eagle comes down, picks up the snake and flies off.

And so the Aztecs go, okay.

This is it.

You know, like this is what the God's telling us that we have to make it work here.

So over the course of the next couple hundred, maybe 150, 200 years, they're working as mercenaries for the kingdom of Calvacon.

lives on the coastline while the Aztecs are in this crappy land in the center.

And so they're acting as mercenaries for Kawakon, and Kawakon is marking off all these other kingdoms around the Lake of Tenochtitlan.

They're sacking them and pulling them into the kingdom of Kawakon.

Sacking them, killing all their lords, and stalling your own lords, pulling them in.

So the Aztecs help Kawakon do all of this.

And during this time, the Aztecs are being paid very well.

They're now building their town

And so it's now sprawling out into this metropolis.
