Mexico a Nation of Vast Size and Mixed Heritage
The National Geographic Society summarizes Mexico's area of 767,000 square miles nearly matching a portion of the United States in certain regions. It notes diverse elevation from sea level to 18,000 feet, and a coast line totaling 5,700 miles. Mexico's population density averages about 20 per square mile, with Tlaxcala and Mexico state among the most populated areas. The government mirrors the United States structure with executive, legislative, and judicial branches, while church and state remain independent. Two fifths of inhabitants trace direct ancient lineages, another two fifths are of mixed native and foreign descent, and the rest are of other backgrounds. The piece previews Mexico's history from Cortes to independence, and outlines federal districts and provincial governance.
