The Aztecs originated in Aztlan in northern Mexico around 1100 and wandered for over 200 years before settling in Tenochtitlan in 1325. They built canals and causeways around the city and developed a great civilization through conquest. Montezuma I expanded the Aztec Empire during his rule from 1440 to 1469. The Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortes arrived in 1519 and took Montezuma II prisoner, driving the Aztecs from Tenochtitlan. Cortes defeated the Aztecs in 1521 with the help of horses and gunpowder.
