The Return of Ketsalkoatl

Aztec Mexico

My nation is a modern Aztec Empire, perhaps one that beat Cortes, still planning.


The Aztecs fought with Cortes and won for Aztec emissaries were succesful in getting the Tlaxcalteca to crush them which they did. Cortes went to Spain and was ashamed of his loss but later went to Florida or somewhere else.

When the Aztecs won, they began a period of expansion, taking over all of Mexico and trading with the Inca and Maya, before Spain beat them and conquered them, leaving the Aztecs alone.

The Aztecs and Spanish soon became friends and they traded, the Aztecs got gunpowder and guns from the Spaniards. Tenochtitlan was stll the capital, it was more impressive than before, surely ranked among cities like Venice or Constantinople.

The Aztec religion thrived and Christianity did get in, in later years. The Aztecs were led by a Hueyi Tlatoani or Great Speaker, their current one was Cuauhtémoc XI (may change). The Aztecs enjoyed relations with the Americans, one in the past had said ''The Aztecs are the civilized people, more than these tribesmen we see in our lands.''

The Aztecs had a formidable empire under their banner. They ruled a great empire, its culture flourishing and its people thriving.

I'll do more later but can some people tell me how I did so far? Thanks!

Is it possible for the Aztecs to take over the Inca and Maya because I am planning to have that or keep the Aztecs only ruling over all of Mexico.

OOC: Nice Rping thus far. Sorry if it's not how you want it, but isn't it spelt Quetzalcoatl?

OOC: I think the Maya were gone by the time the Aztecs really got going, but I'm not great with history... They could conquer the places were the Maya used to be though.

OOC: Okay, I've got 1,200 years ago for collapse of the Mayan empire, and Aztec peaking in 1519.

Nice job with your research, Aeson. Also, do you want to build diplomatic relations?

OOC: Perhaps in a short while. I'm trying to think of some techno babble at the moment and so am somewhat preoccupied.

That is ok with me, I understand you are dealing with things. My nation would be glad to open relations with you. Also, I've read through the forums and found you in several RP's. What is the Aesonic faith? My nation holds the Aztec faith (along with Christianity).

OOC: Okay. Sort of based on Norse mythology. They believe that dying in battle sends you to Valhalla and invoke many of the Norse gods. Also, most of them (exclude Ehznoists/True Aesonics who you may or may not have come across)

OOC-That is interesting. Mine is of the Aztec religion, like Quetzalcoatl for example.

I would be glad to accept your offer of protection for my Aztec nation. Intructors for officers is ok, though they are well kept and trained though. Military equipment is acceptable to us as well. Also, defense against hostile nations would be appreciated, we know about invasions quite well, we fought Hernan Cortes and won in the past.

Feel free to send your generals (or officers of equivilant ranks) to Aesonic Millitary Academy, free of charge. In addition, we are preparing a group of seargents to train your troops, and to train your seargents (or officers of equivilant rank) to do the same.
