Mexico - Glorieta de Cuauhtémoc

rond-point du Cuauhtemoc

We had 2 emperors but both for a short period and there are no monuments dedicated to them. However, before the spaniard colonization there were many emperors. This is a monument dedicated to Cuauhtémoc, the last aztec emperor who was tortured by the spaniards by burning his feet so he would tell where the treasure was. They were looking for gold, he was defending cacao.
