High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles New Spain, formally called the Viceroyalty of New Spain (Spanish: Virreinato de Nueva Espa a), was a viceroyalty of the Spanish colonial empire, comprising primarily territories in what was known then as 'Am rica Septentrional' or North America. Its capital was Mexico City, formerly Tenochtitlan, capital of the Aztec Empire. New Spain was established following the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire in 1521, and at its greatest extent included much of North America south of Canada: all of present-day Mexico and Central America (except Panama), most of the United States west of the Mississippi River and the Floridas.
