Mexican State

The Mexican State refers to the 32 federal entities of Mexico, each with its own constitution, congress, and a governor. These states, along with Mexico City, form the United Mexican States, a federal republic in North America.

History

The concept of a Mexican State has its roots in the Mexican War of Independence, which resulted in the creation of the Constitution of 1824. This constitution established Mexico as a federal republic composed of multiple states.

Structure

Each Mexican State has its own constitution, which outlines the structure of its local government. This typically includes a governor, who serves as the executive head of the state, and a congress, which serves as the legislative body. The judiciary is also an important part of the state structure, with each state having its own supreme court.
