The Homeland is First

When you beg to be second, then you also have to act as second, so it’s going to be America First, America First.

The Maya civilization, dating back to around 2000 BCE, thrived in regions of present-day Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, and El Salvador. It peaked during the Classic Period (250-900 CE) with over 40 cities and a population of approximately 10 million. Society was hierarchical, with kings, nobles, priests, and farmers. Agriculture was central, utilizing innovative techniques, and their diet included corn, beans, and squash. Religion was paramount, as the Maya were polytheistic, worshipping nature deities and practicing animism. They are notable for creating a sophisticated 365-day calendar.

The Toltec civilization thrived in central Mexico, primarily in Tula, from 900 to 1150 CE. Emerging from a blend of Nonoalca and Chichimeca cultures, they formed a hierarchical theocracy with divine rulers and a militaristic aristocracy. The Toltecs were known for their craftsmanship and cultural influence, particularly on the Aztecs, who regarded them as predecessors. However, by the early 12th century, internal conflicts, droughts, and invasions from rival groups like the Chichimecs and Mexica led to their decline. Despite their fall, the Toltecs left a lasting legacy in Mesoamerican culture and religion.
