Buddhist Aztecs?

So the sinified name of the Empire would be "Mei Xi 'Ke" then.... :)
well the Aztecs from tenochtitlan called themselves Mexica Tenochca so a sinification might be something like Meixike Tenosha, or perhaps just Tenosha or perhaps the P'urhepecha (the Tarascans, a people who lived on the western half of Mexico and the other empire to the Aztecs) or some other western peoples name for the Aztecs. No idea what those would be, as many of those languages are dead or highly obscure.

GAH! I just remembered that when the Spanish write 'x' in terms in Nahuatl it measn 'sh'. So it would be more like Meishika.
 
On an unrelated note, didn't the Inca call themselves Tawantinsuyu? What would that be in a Chinese dominated America?
Tawantinsuyu was th ename for the Empire, while the Quechua reffered to themselves as the Runa 'people', but I think it really depends on where the Chinese land. I mean Peru comes from th ename of a river, so theres a lot of chance involved.
