I would love to live in Mexico because of the warm wether, the tropical fish, and animals. But I think that I would like it more if I come to visit instead of living there. I have never gone to Mexico before but I would very much like to because of all the very good stuff I found when researching.
Extraction from global citizens : Tradition says that the Mexica chose their new home because of a sign from one of their gods. They saw an eagle perched on a cactus eating a snake. This was their sign to build their own city. They called it Tenochtitlan Place of the Cactus.

New and improved Allyera Lie Aquali
I edited my storey a bit. Here is the new and improved one.
Allyera Lie Aquali
Chapter 1
In the Mermaidia Kingdom all the mere-people were getting ready for Princess Allya’s coronation. Every thirty-five years, at noon a new ruler sits upon the throne of the coronation field, carrying the magical Trident of Mermaidia.
In her room Allya was getting ready to see her friends when her brother burst out from behind her door, hoping to scare her. “Boo!” He hollered.
“Ahh, Brandon!” Allya yelled, throwing her pillow at him. “Leave me alone! Go away before I tell father!”
Brandon crossed his arms sulkily. “I was just trying to have some fun.”
Allya placed the books she was carrying next to her bed. “Well, not right now, I’m getting ready for my coronation.”
Brandon rolled his eyes. “Ya, right. I doubt it.”
Before Allya could respond their father entered the room. “Good morning, my children. Allya, it’s now time for your petition hearings.”
“Aw, but father!” Allya protested.
“No buts! Your about to be Queen and you need to focus on your duties. And besides, I’ll be right there with you. You need to show your love for the people.”
“I was just about to go hang out with my friends!” Allya complained. “HA!! I was right you weren't getting ready for your coronation, you where going to hang out with your friends!” Brandon smiled annoyingly. Her father glared at her. She gave a sigh. “Fine.”
The king turned to his son. “And Brandon, head to your schoolroom. You’re late and your tutor’s waiting for you.”
“Alright father.” He said grumpily.
About ten minutes later Allya and King Plankton where seated on their thrones with a long line of people waiting to see them.
The king held the magical trident in his right hand lowering it so the next mer-person could speak.
“My King!!” the mer-man said urgently. “My coral farm has been destroyed by sharks!
“I see.” the King replied wile stroking his big, white, fluffy beard. “We will send guards to shoo away the sharks and to help you rebuild your farms.”
“Thank you my King, thank you!” The mere-man thanked.
Allya was startled “Father that was the fifth shark sighting this week!”
Her father frowned “I know, I am sending scouts to find out where they are coming from.”
Several hours later the last person in line approached the thrones. He was hooded and cloaked and riding a mantis ray like you would ride a boat above the water. His hood covered his face and his cloak covered most of his body from view. When he spoke his voice had a slight rasp.
“Your majesty, I have travelled from afar to see you in person! I wanted to give these to you.” He announced as he gave the king a basket of seaweed rolls.
The king smiled with thanks. “We will have them for supper tonight!”
The man smiled under his cloak.
Allya was not liking the odd man. There was something wrong about him, but she didn't know what.
The man bowed low, backing out of the door, where, unknown by the king and the princess, he ducked behind a pillar and watched to see what the king would do next.
King Plankton placed the magical Trident on a coral holder next to his throne designed especially for this purpose. The stranger smiled grimly to himself.
The king left the room with the guards following him and the man ducked out of sight quickly, making sure he didn't get seen, tipped towed over to the king’s throne and took the trident from its holding place and snuck out of the castle.
Chapter 2
The next day was the day before Princess Allya’s coronation.
Every one was gathered in the throne room with looks of great surprise on their faces.
Allya rushed into the room. “You called me father?”
Her father turned to her with a look of confusion and anger. “The trident is gone!”
Allya looked frightened. “What! that can’t be possible, that means I can’t have my coronation!” The king nodded. Allya looked like she just saw a horror movie. “but that means there wont be a ruler of Mermaidia!” The king nodded again.
King Plankton sent guards to every house in the mermaidia kingdom to find the trident.
Allya went for a swim. She was swimming near the great blue hole ( a trench near Mexico) and saw a shark swimming into it. Allya followed the shark for a while, and it led her to some other sharks. She quickly hid when she heard a voice.
“Aha, there you are. Did you find any information at the castle?” The dark voice barked.
Since Allya could speak to ocean animals she heard what the shark had to say. “Yes, your plan worked!”
“Good,” Sharkon replied. “We will send sharks to distract them and head over to the coronation field.”
“Yay!” The sharks cheered.
“You are now King Sharkon!” The first shark aded.Allya gasped, quickly covering her mouth.
Sharkon looked around. “What was that?”
“ I…I don’t know sir.” Replied the shark.
“Then find out!!” Yelled Sharkon. Allya swam as fast as she could out of the trench and back to the castle. When she got back she told her father exactly what she had herd.
Then her father realized that he had bean tricked by the cloaked man the other day!
Then he told Allya his plan. They where going to send an army to distract Sharkon and get the trident, then they would get Allya and the trident to the coronation field before it was to late.
Chapter 3
The next morning (the day of the coronation) Allya got up and hurried to the armer gallery where her father was getting on his armer. “Here put this on.” He passed her a breastplate. “You need it so you don’t get hurt.”
Allya put it on and a helmet that was placed on the wall. She sighed. “Do you think I am ready?” She asked.
Her father smiled lovingly. “Yes” He answered. “But we need to go get Sharkon if you what to be queen.” He added jokingly. “Let’s go”
King plankton already had the army in there armer and on there water unicorns. They swam to the coronation field and saw Sharkon sitting on the throne. He frowned and appeared very upset, shaking his fist at the shark beside him. Luckily for him he also had a army of sharks just in case.
“Charge!!!” Yelled King Plankton, swimming the other direction so he could find a safe spot for Allya to stay for the time being.
Allya watch the war go on for hours behind a rock.
waiting for her fathers signal.
King Plankton was in the middle of the field trying to locate Sharkon wile battling a shark all at once. Then he turned around and saw that he was on the throne. King Plankton swam as fast as he could and pushed Sharkon off the throne. Wile Sharkon was falling of the throne he dropped the trident, at that instant King Plankton grabbed the trident and blowed his horn as loud as he could.
Allya herd the horn and swam as fast as she could toward her father and when he got in sight she saw Sharkon stabbing him in the back with a shark tooth knife.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!” Allya screamed in horror as she grabbed the trident from her fathers hands and stabbed at Sharkon with it. Allya got so mad that she threw the trident at Sharkon’s head, pinning him to the coral reef by his neck. “You wanted to be king and wanted to take my throne and now you killed my father! Haven’t you done enough?”
Allya grabbed the trident and pushed Sharkon to the ground. She signals to one of the guards in battle to hold Sharkon down. Allya had five minuets to get on the throne and be queen.
She swam to the throne and sat upon it as the sun reached it’s highest peak. When she sat down, the throne and the trident lit up with a golden brilliance and she declared her self Allyera Lie Aquali, Queen of Mermaidia.
The end
