Tonatico

Tonatico Municipality is one of the regions of the State of Mexico, in Mexico found 153 kilometers from Mexico City, 105 from Cuernavaca, 84 from Toluca, 68 from Taxco and 5 from Ixtapan de la Sal. Tonatico, of Nahuatl birthplace, is from the Nahuatl word tonatihco, spot of the sun. Ancient creature remains and cavern depictions have been found in the territory around the cutting edge town. As indicated by legend, the Aztec ruler Axayacatl vanquished the region, at that point known as Tenati-Tlan, "behind the dividers", which had at that point been populated for a couple of millenium, and established Tonatiuh-Co, which had indistinguishable fringes from the present town. Be that as it may, no records of this exist.

Amid the Mexican War of Independence, both Hermenegildo Galeana and Pedro Ascencio de Alquisiras were dynamic around there. In 1863, Don Teodoro Estrada and Don Fructuoso Vazquez battled here against the French. In 1870, the town turned into the seat of the momentum district of Tonatico, however the region it at that point administered was uniquely about a large portion of the measure of its recorded degree. The Liberation Army of the South Zapatistas were dynamic here, first consuming the metropolitan library in 1912, assaulting government troops in the fundamental church and eventually ousting administrative troops from the town in 1916.
