Detailed explanation-1: -Catholicism in Mexico. Spanish colonists introduced Roman Catholicism to Mexico in the 16th century.
Detailed explanation-2: -Such an empowerment clearly meant that along with Spanish law, governance, language, and culture, the Roman Catholic religion, too, would cross from Europe to the Americas and that the king of Spain would engage in the spread of Christianity to the native peoples of the New World.
Detailed explanation-3: -Catholicism arrived in Mexico with the conquistadors coming to plunder the country, but it took the apparition of Mary in 1531 for the religion to take root. Historians say the Spanish cleverly substituted the Virgin for Tonantzin and employed her to evangelize the indigenous populations.
Detailed explanation-4: -Aztec religion, the religion followed by the Aztecs, a Nahuatl-speaking people who ruled a large empire in central and southern Mexico in the 15th and early 16th centuries. Aztec religion was syncretistic, absorbing elements from many other Mesoamerican cultures.
