Get ready everyone, we're talking about Aztecs! This will be the longest series so far! We have so many more parts ahead of us. Today we'll be talking about a very brief description of the landscape of the Valley of Mexico, what sacred landscapes mean, and how the city of Tenochtitlan was built. It's super quick, super foundational, and will help us prepare for the future episodes
