      Name Esplain a useful tip: when you're talking about mexican names, the "x" is pronounced like an "h". that's because in old spanish the "x" and the "j" had the same pronounciation, and the "j" in spanish is pronounced like the "h" for example "hahaha" in spanish is "jajaja". but when the spanish co-conquered mexico the "x" still had the "j" pronounciation, so they wrote the names with that pronounciation with an "x"

      Dennis Olsson, the reason that Swaziland changed its name to eSwatini is to avoid confusion between the country's former name and Switzerland. This is because the King of Swaziland, Mswati III, has a problem. “Whenever we go abroad”, he says, “people refer to us as Switzerland.” So on April 18th, at a celebration marking the 50th anniversary of the country’s independence from Britain, the king announced that he was changing Swaziland’s name to eSwatini.

    According to the legend, when the Aztecs departure from Aztlan, Huitzilopochtli, told them to build their new home where they found a signal: An eagle devouring a snake. Eventually they found this on Texcoco Lake, where Tenochtitlan was built. That's why this is also in Mexico's flag.

    You are the best at explaining the origin of things! This video reminded me of El Dorado.
    Fun Fact: Oxford University is older than the Aztecs! Teaching started in Oxford as early as 1096, and by 1249, the University was officially founded. The Aztec Civilisation as we know it began with the founding of Tenochtitlán in 1325.

    • @MindBending
      @MindBending 6 років тому +4

      You're kinda right. Why just kinda? The Aztecs existed as nomadic people long before the founding of Tenochtitlan in 1325. Furthermore, they already lived in the vicinity of what was to become Tenochtitlan for at least 100 years before its founding, they were however dominated by other cultures at that time

    Not *just* the Aztecs. "Many gods", "Logographic", and "Pyramids" are traits that plenty of mesoamerican civilizations shared, from the Olmec to the Maya. I think (from what I remember) it started with the Olmecs, and everyone else in the region ended up adopting their cultures and traditions.

    • @Random2
      @Random2 6 років тому +4

      Ok, it has been a long time, but if I remember correctly, X before a hard sound (like a C in texcoco) is the X sound found in "mix". The contemporaries of the Aztecs, Mixtecs, were pronounced mix + techs, or like in their word for grey (nextic). If it is not a hard sound, such as in the word for green (xoxoctic), it is pronounced "shoshoctic". There were other rules, like if the sound is aspirated or not, but I can't remember more.

    • @MuseFanPL
      @MuseFanPL 6 років тому +5

      You are right. X in Nahuatl, Aztec language is pronounced as /sh/.

    I wish you would have also mentioned the reason why the aztecs chose tenochtitlan where they did despite being so inconvenient. A hint: it's in México's coat of arms and is about another prophecy.

    What I´ve heard living in Mexico I know 2 theories about wwhere the aztecs come from, the first is they where nomads in the Mexican Plateau then finaly they endend in Texcoco, then a Second one is that they come from the northwest swampy cost of the state of Nayarit due the similarities with the leyend (Even a twice of little towns in the area are named Aztlan), and some say they might be forced to leave because maybe the area were flooded in some time of the history. Even some people like to say the tonw of Mexcaltitán de Uribe is the Aztlan island

    You're wrong at 0:32 because Tenochtitlan was never a lost city. Also the name "Aztec" today still isn't understood if it refers to a language group, or a much larger group consisting of multiple ones, because "Astlan" is a conceptual place, not a literal one. The Mexika seem to have been an offshoot of the Kwitlawaka' to the SE of them, as is shown in Codex Boturini.

    Some people think the name comes from aztlan is were the aztecs got the name from.
    I thought aztlan sounded like atlantis or at least similar .
    They say aztlan was an island like atlantis but aztlan is supposed to be the land of the white.
    Could this mean snow ? Or mabe something with a type of rock that ia white that was used to build the old civilization that they are from?
    Fun stuff to think about.

    I love your vids but c'mon, you're really gonna call the Aztecs, Maya and Inca tribes? The Aztec and Inca civilisations were empires and the Maya were a group of mostly independent city states sharing a general culture, all of them were far more developed than tribes. Also Mesoamerica is a cultural region covering much of modern day Mexico and northern Central America, the Inca were an Andean civilisation in an entirely different cultural and geographical region than the Aztecs and Maya.
    But still, it was a mostly good vid, just a bit of misinformation in that little section (which was funnily enough the section dedicated to dispelling misinformation).

    CE? Please use AD and BC, it's more understandable. Using CE is changing the name of something for the sake of it to not sound offensive. Which AD and BC aren't.

      geography27 No, it’s to make it secular and more open to people outside of Christian circles/ predominantly Christian cultures. CE is what’s used in intellectual circles, and rightly so.

    • @geography27
      @geography27 6 років тому +2

      Using CE Is it making it more secular? It's still based on the AD and BC dating system. Beats the whole objective of it being secular!
      Other dating systems don't change for Christians, they don't need to, so why should Christians change for others?
