		The United Mexican States (Spanish:), or simply Mexico (Spanish:), 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 first four decades of independent Mexico were marked by a constant strife between federalists (those who supported the federal form of government stipulated in the 1824 constitution) and centralists (who proposed a hierarchical form of government in which all local authorities were appointed and subject to a central authority).
		Mexican culture is the result of a historical process of violent and peaceful exchange of ideas, the assimilation of exogenous cultural elements and the reinterpretations of the endogenous cultural elements.

		Soon after achieving its independence from Spain, the Mexican government, in an effort to populate its sparsely-settled hinterlands, awarded land grants in a remote area of the northernmost state of Coahuila y Tejas to hundreds of immigrant families from the United States, on the condition that the settlers convert to Catholicism and assume Mexican citizenship.
		This Second Mexican Empire was fought off by then-president of the Republic, the Zapotec Benito Juárez, with diplomatic and logistical support from the United States and the military expertise of General Porfirio Díaz.
		The Mexican "distant-learning" secondary education is also transmitted to some Central American countries and to Colombia, and it is used in some southern states of the United States as a method of bilingual education.

	Mexican Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Mexican Empire was the name of Mexico on two non-consecutive occasions in the 19th century when it was ruled by an Emperor.
		The Second Mexican Empire survived longer than the First Empire; however, it still only had one reigning emperor, Maximiliano de Habsburgo, who was installed by Napoleon III of France with the support of the Austrian and Spanish Crowns, in order to create a European-style monarchical system in Mexico.
		There is a parallel claim, that by Matrilineal Descent the descendants of the naturalized Mexican Princely-Countess Anna-Victoria, the favorite niece of the Emperor and daughter of Archduke Louis of Austria, are the pretender line to the abolished throne.

	The Conquest of the Mexican Empire
		The country of the ancient Mexicans, or Aztecs as they were called, formed but a very small part of the extensive territories comprehended in the modern Republic of Mexico.
		The Aztecs first entered it from the north towards the beginning of the thirteenth century, but it was not until the year 1325 that, led by an auspicious omen, they laid the foundations of their future city by sinking piles into the shallows of the principal lake in the Mexican valley.
		The government of the Aztecs, or Mexicans, was an elective monarchy, the sovereign being, however, always chosen from the same family.

		Empire’s pages brim with the science—fiction—like neologisms that typify much contemporary academic writing: “agentic,” “biopower,” “deterritorialization”—words that give those who wield them the sense of gaining Shaman—like access to hidden realms.
		At the pinnacle of Empire is the capitalist power par excellence, the nuclear—bomb—wielding U.S., “a superpower that can act alone but prefers to act in collaboration with others.” Among those others: the G—8 nations, the Paris and London Clubs for Growth, and various nongovernmental organizations that seek to expand economic exchanges among states.
		After all, Empire is the “Next Big Idea” after a century in which more than 125 million people lost their lives because of antibourgeois political movements.
