| - The Sultanate of Tenochtitlan (Spanish: Sultanato de Tenochtitlan, Mozarabic: Soltanatu di Aluezát, Arabic: سلطنة تينوختيتلان Sultanat Tinukhtytlan) also known as Al-Wasat (Arabic: حزب الوسط) in many historical documents, was a Muslim kingdom and a colony state of the Andalusian Empire based on where modern-day Mexico City is based. It also covered the areas of Lake Texcoco in the Valley of Mexico near the Isthmus between Central and South America. The sultanate was found by Andalusian conquistadors as well Spanish-Mexican and native Mesoamerican converts to Islam that fought against the Spanish conquistadors and against their own Catholic counterparts for control of Mexico City and Tenochtitlan. This particular sultanate was the only Muslim kingdom in Latin America. Much like the Spaniards, the Moors brought with them their culture and their influence, building many large forts and mosques in Central Mexico. It is of this reason that Central Mexico is often known as the "Moorish Region" or "Little Andalusia".
