Mexico

Located in the south of the United States, Mexico has Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California as its bordering countries. In the south lie Guatemala and Belize and on the east are The Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. The Pacific Ocean is on the west. Mexico City is the capital of Mexico, with Guadalajara coming close as number two city in terms of importance. Other important cities are Ciudad Juarez, Mazatlan, Mexicali, Monterrey, Puebla Merida, San Luis Potosi, Tampico, Torreon and Veracruz.

Mexico has a number of the mountain peaks which were originally volcanoes. Some form of volcanic activity and earthquakes are common to Mexico. The big climate differences in Mexico results in a wide range of flora and fauna. Expensive hardwoods such as mahogany, ebony, walnut and rosewood grow in Mexico as do oak, pine, fir and the cacao tree whose nuts form the basis of making chocolates. There are over thirty thousand flowering shrubs and plants including frangipani, magnolia, bougainvillea, orchids, etc., growing in Mexico. If you associate Mexico with the cactus plant, it might interest you to note that The Aztec city of Tenochtitian, on whose soil Mexico City stands, derives its name from the "tenochtli" - the prickly pear cactus.

Most of the Roman Catholic population of Mexico speak Spanish although many Amerindian languages are spoken.

The service sector, associated with tourism is an important contributor to the country’s economy through its income through foreign currency earnings. Cancun, the massive tourist resort on the Yucatan coast, earns much of Mexico's tourist revenue. Another source of earning is the money deposited back to the country by Mexicans working in the USA. America is an important trading partner and American manufacturers make use of low labor cost in Mexico for many of their industries.

Though Mexico is world famous for tequila (distilled from cactus juice), traditional Mexican food consists of tortillas (maize flour pancakes) and chilly beans with hot pepper. Other national dishes are burritos, enchiladas and tacos.
