	Mexico City
		Mexico City (Spanish: Ciudad de México, known in Pre-Columbian times as Tenochtitlan) is the capital of Mexico; it geographically spans both the Mexican Federal District (a special administrative unit along the lines of the District of Columbia in the USA), and part of the state of Mexico, to the north of the Federal District.
		After independence was achieved from Spain in 1821, Mexico City was briefly the capital of the Mexican Empire under Iturbide, and from 1823 on the capital of the Republic of Mexico.

	4. Mexican Labour Law (Site not responding. Last check: )
		While the federal government enacts labour legislation, the responsibility for its enforcement is shared, as provided for in Section XXXI of Article 123 of the Constitution, between the federal government and local governments, that is, the 31 states and the Federal District (D.F.).
		Mexican labour law protects against interference in the exercise of freedom of association by prohibiting dismissals except for just cause, by regulating collective layoffs and terminations so that they take place in order of reverse seniority, and by directly prohibiting many forms of interference.
		Thus, a discharged Mexican worker does not have to show that antiunion motivation was a factor in the dismissal; the burden always rests with the employer to prove that the reason for the discharge falls within the statutory definition of just cause for discharge.
