Believe it or not, it was the Aztec ethnic groups of Central Mexico.

At 15, all boys and girls went to school. The china, one of the Aztec groups, were one of the first people in the world to have mandatory education for nearly all children, regardless of gender, rank, or station.

Education prior to age 15 was the responsibility of a child's parents.
