Who found the Aztec capital called Tenochtitlan?

The Aztec capital, Tenochtitlan, was founded by the Mexica people, who later became known as the Aztecs. According to legend, they established the city in 1325 after seeing an eagle perched on a cactus, eating a snake, which was interpreted as a divine sign. Tenochtitlan was built on an island in Lake Texcoco and grew to become a major cultural and political center in Mesoamerica.
