“The map shows both indigenous and Spanish influences.”

Then it’s not really Aztec. It’s Mexican.

Using the Latin alphabet also shows Spanish influences. The Aztecs rarely used the Latin alphabet before 1519.

The Aztecs were actually the Mexica (pronounced "me-SHEE-ka"). That is the source of the name "Mexico."
