@H. Drago Just to clarify what I meant in that old comment, by "terrifying" I meant "badass." The Aztecs had such a cool warrior culture, and it's amazing to me that their ancestors' blood runs in my veins. I'm very proud of that. I never intended for my comment to come off negatively, and I'm sorry if you had that impression.

Mayan is also spoken in the state of Yucatan. I speak nahuatl it a very creative and poetical romantic language.

And yes, Juárez was indigenous but that doesn't mean he was the better of all of them. He was into masonery and did some questionable things if we talk about the interests of mexican people.

the fire represents 1 of the 4 sacred elements. it gives life, warmth, light, cooks our food. It is symbolic of the self sacrifice due to ancient stories where the great spirits aspects of the universe sacrificing themselves during different ages/cycles by becoming the sun and being consumed by the fire so that humanity could live. The fire is in remembrance of this as well as the importance of "self" sacrifice for others. It also shows their discipline and concentration to not flinch.

I find it funny how people can hate on another culture. Whether or not someone likes to admit it or not, there are SO MANY similarities to almost every culture. For example: dance! To go into further detail, the Native Americans, Irish, Spanish, and Africans have similar cultural dances that involve a lot of motion with the legs. Flamenco, River Dancing, and just about every Native and African dance use a lot of strength in the legs with the pounding and twisting of the legs and all that. It's truly beautiful how we come from different corners of the world but seem to be one, without really knowing it, but have our own unique style and fashion.

Being called Hispanic or Latino does not make u Hispanic or Latino. Hispania is a region in Spain and Latino means that the language you speak is based of Latin which would make English speakers llatin as well. Let's not talk about mixture because there are many people that are mixed and still choose to call themselves what they like, yeah we might not be all aztec but if someone wants to take pride in their native roots that were stolen from them let them.

The Aztecs were hard core.
