Being a Mexican citizen myself. I simply want to create a visual timeline of my country so I can have a cleared understanding of its history. Do not take my assemblage/editing skill as being 100% historically accurate. I am a visual artist and I do not claim to be a historian. @beautiful_cosmic_soul #aztec #azteca #aztecas #mexico #méxico #mexicana #mexicanos #mexican #mexicanas #nahuatl #dance #danza #music #musica #video #history #historia #cdmx #mexicocity #tulsaartistfellowship #rafaelcorzo #teotihuacan #teotihuacán #cosmic #conciousness #soul ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @beautiful_cosmic_soul
