		In reality, municipalities (roughly comparable to US counties) are the most battered form of government within a heavily top-down structure, always at the mercy of federal and state powers, and too often exploited by the PRI as a kind of local branch office.
		Some 800 of Mexico's 2,400 municipalities are considered demographically Indian, and it is upon those municipal structures that the Zapatistas propose to build workable autonomies that control their own finances, natural resources, and administrative functions, and which can associate together as a regional authority.
		EZLN autonomous municipalities elect their own councils and health and education promoters, work collectively under principles of communitarian democracy to create infrastructure, keep their own civil registries to record births and deaths, and even issue marriage licenses.
