| MEXICO
The United Mexican States (Spanish: Estados Unidos Mexicanos
(help·info)), or simply Mexico (Spanish: México
(help·info)), is a country located in North America,
bounded on the north by the United States; on the south and
west by the North Pacific Ocean; on the southeast by Guatemala,
Belize, and the Caribbean Sea; and on the east by the Gulf
of Mexico. The United Mexican States comprise a constitutional
republican federation of thirty-one states and a federal district,
Mexico City, one of the most populous cities on Earth.

Covering almost 2 million
square kilometers, Mexico is the 5th largest country in the
Americas by total area and 14th largest in the world. With
a population of almost 109 million, it is the 11th most populous
country and the most populous Spanish-speaking country in
the world.
As the only Latin American
member of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development
(OECD) since 1994, Mexico is firmly established as an upper
middle-income country. Elections held in July 2000 marked
the first time that an opposition party won the presidency
to the Institutional Revolutionary Party (Partido Revolucionario
Institucional: PRI), that held it since 1929, culminating
a process of political alternation that had begun at the local
level since the 1980s. |
