Mexico City, the largest and richest city in the Americas during the 18th century, was synonymous with power, civilization, and order. If the new country wasn't named New Spain, the insurgents of the Bajío region decided it should be named after their most important kingdom and city (because Mexico City was not only a city but also a kingdom and an intendancy).
>>
It was named after the Kingdom of México, not the city.

In the early independent days, it was also refered as the Kingdom of Moctezuma or Anáhuac but Mexico eventually displaced all those terms

>>225891674
back then the mesoamerican nations were ruled by the triple alliance of which the most powerful and important one was tenochtitlan (picrel). they called themselves the tenochca after their founding priest and leader or mexica or some also used the term azteca to harken back to the legendary city they had been kicked out from in the north (somewhere in present day PNW).
now the entire country of mexico is again ruled from mexico city, formerly called tenochtitlan.

the more things change the more they stay the same

Man, I love my flag so much. As for your question. Others have already answered it so I'd just add that I think the capital should be renamed to its old name.

Sounds nice I guess

>>225891760
>> Brazil
>> Brasília
that's the other way around
>>
they pronounce their own name wrong
x was originally used to write the sh sound in spanish (and still is in a couple indigenous languages)
but sound changes made it a voiceless velar fricative
wtf

Brasilia was built in the 1960s. It's a fairly new city.
