History
Pre-Columbian
The earliest advanced civilization in Mexico was the Olmecs, which lasted from 1500 to 400 BCE.[1] They were succeeded by the Mayans and the Zapotecs. In 1428, the Aztec Empire was established, which ruled until Mexico was colonized by Spain.[2]
Colonial
Mexico was colonized by Spain in 1521, killing 200,000 Aztecs,[3] and the Viceroyalty of New Spain was established.
