Mexico Special Events

Decent Essays
A special events that occurred was when I almost got killed by a car in mexico. I was five years old when my mom got me out of the car seat and ran straight towards the road, but my dad caught me. My twin brother almost got killed the same way. I am really thankful for my dad saving me because I wouldn't even be alive to this day. In Mexico cars don't stop for anything or anybody. It is very different than the united states. There are many things you can do in mexico that you can't do in the states. For example there is a festival in november and they set of many fireworks but towards the people not in the air. There are roller coasters and many foods that aren't as good here. I like their candy they have chile

    The country of Mexico officially gained its independence from Spain in 1821. To understand this specific juncture in the country’s history we must understand the political environment that came before it. Long before Cortes landed on the coast in 1521 in search of gold and silver, the political system of Mexico was organized by Mesoamerican civilizations like the Aztecs, Toltecs, Olmecs, and Mayans. By the time the Spanish arrived the Aztecs had a firm political grasp on most of the region. The Aztecs did not enforce absolute rule over their territories, nor were all the territories linked by common borders, the Aztecs simply expected the territories to pay tributes to the principal city state of Tenochtitlan.…
