Learn about the history and culture of this beautiful country
The history of Mexico, particularly rich, can be divided into three major periods. Different peoples with diverse cultures followed one another until 1521, when the last Aztec emperor surrendered to the Spaniards. The third part begins with the independence of Mexico in 1821 and lasts until our days
