But despite appearances, the Constitution doesnât actually require that states use grand jury indictments in felony cases. The guarantee of an indictment in a felony prosecution is one of the few rights that hasnât been extended to the states.
Tenochtitlan was an important city for the Aztecs, or Mexica. It was founded about 1325 by Tenoch, a respected chief of the early Aztecs during their migration from Aztlan. This was the ancestral (and possibly legendary) homeland of the Aztecs (or Nahua peoples), and is yet to be identified by archaeologists.
This coalition was the foundation of the Aztec Triple Alliance, which defeated Azcapotzalco in 1428. Over the next 100 years, the triple-alliance of Tenochtitlan, Texcoco, and Tlacopan would come to dominate the Valley of Mexico and extend its power to the shores of both the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific ocean. Over this period, Tenochtitlan gradually became the dominant power in the alliance.
