Description
Mexico is the northern most country of Latin America with the Rio Grande forming a natural boundary between Mexico and the United States. The official name of the country is Estados Unidos Mexicanos (United Mexican States). With a population estimated at close to 96 million, it ranks the third highest among the countries of the Western Hemisphere, behind the United States and Brazil.
The great majority of its people are mestizos who are of mixed European and Indian ancestry and about all of them speak Spanish, be it an enchanting blend of Spanish and Indian cultures. The official flag features three colored stripes; green for independence, white for religion and red for union. The country is a federal republic made up of 31 states and a Federal District.
Mexico's cultural mix is a result of its long and colorful history. Hundreds of years ago, Mexico was the home of great Indian civilizations. The people built cities and temples. They developed a calendar, a counting system and a form of writing. The last of these Indian empires fell to Spanish invaders in 1521. Following this conquest, Mexico remained a Spanish colony for the next 300 years. This led to widespread intermarriage and racial mixing between Spaniards and Native Americans. As late as the early 19th century, Native Americans accounted for nearly two-thirds of the population in the region. During that century, however, the racial composition of the country began to change from one that featured distinct European (Spanish) and indigenous populations, to one made up largely of mestizos-people of mixed Spanish and Native American descent. By the end of the 19th century, mestizos, who were discriminated against during three centuries of Spanish colonization, had become the largest population group in Mexico. Mestizos now account for about 60 percent of Mexicans.
