A really short history of Mexico City



In less than 4 minutes, this video relates the history of Mexico City from its inception in 1521 to our modern day. After viewing, let's see if you can pronounce the name of the former Aztec capital upon which Spanish conquistadores built Mexico City. Do you recall the tragic event that occurred 10 days prior to the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City? How about the name of a prominent Mexican artist pictured with her husband Diego Rivera?
