Are Mexicans really modern day descendants of the Aztecs or are they just larping and the Aztecs were all wiped out by the conquistadors?
The Spanish took control of Mexico with less than 5000 men. It was not some sort of giant demographic wave that displaced the native ethnicities
>>226007185How did they do it with such few men? Weren't there millions of Aztecs?
>>226007313They got the manpower by allying with tribes who hated the Aztecs that the Spanish then assisted with their technological advantage. It was a clever divide and conquer diplomatic campaign.
>>226007313Imagine game of thrones with many people scheming for control and then this 500 heavy armed soldiers show up with futuristic weapons saying they'll help you kill the evil rulers if you help them with men and resources.
>>226007104No, my ancestors were Purepecha
>>226007104It wasn't the spanish that wiped out the Aztecs, it was all the vassal tribes that the Spanish turned against the Aztecs, who hated the Aztecs for all their forced human sacrifices and other atrocities against them. No aztecs survived.
>>226007104As in descendants of Tenochca or Mexica (habitants of Mexico-Tenochtitlan)? just a minority some of them also living in Spain.As in racial descendants? Yes, there are still millions of them
>>226008012That isn't true and Montezuma's children even traveled to Europe and eventually settledown there and spread their lineage
>>226007185Introduction of pathogens Aztecs were not biologically prepared to deal with, and other pre-Hispanic societies becoming allies to the Spanish conquerers to escape brutal Aztec oppression.
>>226007104More like modern day descendants of the Tlaxcaltecs (Cortes' main native allies), those fuckers went on and helped them colonize everything and also fuck everyone (literally). The Aztec nobility and society was purged by war and diseases and entered a bottleneck and most of their descendants today are not necessarily people who carry their genes but people who carry the genes of the peoples that were under Aztec rule/tribute and then were "liberated". Phenotypically though it's hard to tell, they essentially are rook same except for the Mayans, northern natives and Olmecs.
Have you seen how the cartel kills people? The apple didn't fall far from the tree
>>226007104> Tons of Cartel video of guys having their faces perfectly peeled off in less than 10 seconds. >Somehow Im supposed to belive this isnt some aztec genetic heritage speakingYes, op, mexicans are very aztecs even tho they dont really notice it. Its is in them
>>226007104the aztecs got whipped out, so nomodern mexicans are descendants of non-aztec tribes, which there were plenty of, and of low-class low-born half-moor spanish exiles. that explains everything
>>226007104Are chinese really descendants of Shang?Are amerifats realy descendants of native americans?
>>226010293in a world where europe never sailed west, we would have ventured south and conquered all the amazon, i would have a kuruminha sex slave, all of you would be coming every 30 sun cycles to pay tribute at our great city of Uitstlan
>>226007104There's probably still a few
>>226010293Notice that all the drug traffickers have a strong Spanish heritage, and the states with the highest levels of violence are all those with the largest European presence.

>>226008012>No aztecs survived.> let me tell you about your country.jpgTenocha went to conquer northern & central america alongside many other pre hispanic nations to serve their king Felipe IIPicrelated: Mexica warriors going to conquer FloridaWho knows? Maybe your floridian amerimutt has aztec DNA
>>226007104>Are Mexicans really modern day descendants of the AztecsNo. They are Spanish/Native rapebabies. 95% of mexicans are mestizo which just means mutt.
>>226007761>game of throneslmao, the Aztecs had comfortable control over the region specifically because there were no other factions worth even half their salt. Cortez was able to take advantage of the fact that the Aztecs were completely surrounded by either enemies or uninhabitable wilderness.
>>226007104like most simple minded people that post around here you only contemplate two extremes and not the nuaced middle where truth really liesthere are still pure aztecs around but they're not that manymost people is mixedeven among natives, most people is mixed with other native group who 300 years ago would be considered another entirely different race by them but they all look the same to ushappens in my country too, it's rare to see 100% natives, most people, even those who look completely native, have either a drop or two of european blood somewhere in their genes or most normally ancestors from other native groups, like quechuas with araucanos or guaranies with aimaras etcif you see them separate and in their purest form they look very different but in a city you often see people with traits of different groups in their faces, just the other day I fucked a girl who was half guarani half quechua, very cute, looked like a pale filipina.
All mexicans have some mexica DNAThats because they were in fact the most loyal allies of the spanish & assimiliated their culture very quickly and went all the places where spanish colonization took placeAll other amerindian nations resisted spanish culturization, thats why they still exist (in very backward conditions)The mexica realized the european civilization was superior to their mesoamerican one and aptly assimilated into it, they turneed into "mestizos" aka mexicans
>>226015882High test
>>226007104yesbefore spanish refugee crisis in the 1500s they looked like this (still do in some parts)
>>226016461Too short and stubby!
Hating the aztecs is a gringo-CIA/hispanchista psy op to divide & conquer MexicoThe conquistadors & friars saw the aztecs as the pinncacle & most civilized people in the americas, so much that they went to name conquered territories as "new mexico"The war carried against them was 1) the fact that cortes had to travel through tlaxcala & veracruz before arriving to mexico city, thus he was influenced by these nations who were jealous of Tenochtitlan2) the fact that the spanish crown didnt want feudal lords in America and saw Cortes with suspicious, so they sent Panfilo to kill him, which in turn forced Cortes to escape Tenochtitlan and made Moctezuma realize he was an outlawAfter the war against the aztecs, there was great lamentations about the fall of such beautiful city & empire. The crown always repressed those feelings so to avoid independence movement, which finally exploded in the XVIIIth century, when mestizos & criollos looked back at the past
azteca wher emore like the old classical persian empire, rule yourself but aend tribute to the capitalwhile the incas where literally the roman empire compared to meseo americane, except for the purepecha who where the only ethnic based nation in south and north america
>>226007104There are people who are descendants of the Aztecs but a whole lot who come from different peoples like the Maya, Purepecha, Zapotecs, etc.
>>226007104no. aztecs were mostly killed and exterminated but we larp as aztecs because they were noble, sophisticated and the main antagonists of the spanish invaders so of course we would larp as them and not some faggot nation like tlaxcalla >t. kingdom of tzintzuntzan
>>226020066Why not larp as the badass conquistadors?
>>226016671The CIA destroyed the Aztecs o algo
>>226016353>"mestizos" aka mexicans"Mestizo" translates directly to "mutt", so what you're saying is offensive, like you see some random person on the street and you casually say "hey, mutt! how you doing, mutt?". The normalization of the word "mestizo" was one of the biggest mistakes and a slave mentality from colonial times that still persists in modern times.
I am an Aztec; my skin is brown like bronze, and my roots and descendants are Native American.
>>226007104100% Jomon-Aztec right here—ask me whatever you want, payo. Btw, my name means "rock that stands firm."
>>226020731It really angers me to think that we were conquered by people who have descendants like this.
>>226020816What do you mean? Like what?
>>226021282I'll explain in a moment
>>226020731pathetic; very feminine clavicles.
>>226020816?
>>226021339Why are they praying to a painting of a tree woman?
>>226021808Because they lend money to the crown
I'm descended from tarascans
>>226020731you're half tlaxcalan half spanish refugee
We have genetics to tell you the average Mexican is like 33-66% indio
>>226007967>23%>8%>7%>3%That's not 100%. What is your other ancestry?
>>226007967>not pictured like 40% africanYou are a trizambo
I always wonder how many Mexicans identify with the Aztecs but are actually descendants of the people they used for blood sacrifices.
