Answered by GPT-5 mini AI
The Aztec Empire was in central Mexico — mainly the highland Basin (Valley) of Mexico. Its capital, Tenochtitlan, sat on an island in Lake Texcoco where Mexico City now stands. At its height (15th–early 16th centuries) the empire dominated much of central Mexico and parts of the Gulf and Pacific coasts; all of it is within present‑day Mexico.
