As such, the Maias live in the south of the Mexican territory, on the Yucatan Peninsula. It was a country that was divided into state cities, therefore it was not possible to invest a large capital, including important cities such as Chichen Itza, Teotihuacan and Palenque.

As two Spaniards fell into the region of Central America at the end of the 16th century, the Maia empire had weakened and the Asteca empire succumbed to deeds, better technology and alliances of the invaders (or discoverers).
