Mexico<br />
In the early 16th century, Mexico was conquered and<br />
colonized by Spain. Mexico was<br />
administered as the Viceroyalty of<br />
New Spain for three centuries until<br />
it achieved independence early in<br />
the 19th century. It is located in<br />
North America, bordering the<br />
Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of<br />
Mexico. The people also celebrate<br />
the Day of the Dead which is national. In Mexico, there are<br />
official 68 languages and Chichen Itza is one of the Seven<br />
Wonders of the World. Mexico is the<br />
world’s largest Spanish-speaking country<br />
and home to the world’s smallest volcano.<br />
Did you know that Mexico is sinking<br />
3 feet each year?<br />
