Mexican people (Spanish: Pueblo mexicano (collective), Mexicanos (individuals)) refers to all persons from Mexico, a multiethnic country in North America, and/or who identify with the Mexican cultural and/or national identity.

Mexico became a nation in 1821 when Mexico achieved independence from the Spanish Empire; this began the process of forging a Mexican national identity that fused the cultural traits of indigenous pre-Columbian origin with those of European, particularly Iberian, ancestry. This led to what has been termed "a peculiar form of multi-ethnic nationalism"

The most spoken language by Mexicans is Mexican Spanish, but many also speak languages from 62 different indigenous linguistic groups and other languages brought to Mexico by recent immigration or learned by Mexican immigrants residing in other nations. Over 78% of the Mexican people live in Mexico but there is a sizable diaspora with nearly 22% living in the United States.

Arriving through both direct and indirect routes, Mexicans worked as unskilled and semiskilled laborers in agriculture and heavy industry, including the Rock Island, Santa Fe, and Burlington railways; Inland Steel; US Steel; Beetsugar Company; and the Armour and Swift packinghouses. The predominantly male Mexican workforce, and the solos, migrated into Chicago from agricultural fields throughout the Midwest and from towns and villages in Texas and the Central Mexican states of Guanajuato, Michoacán, and Jalisco. Those who came were more likely from the middle class than from among the poorest peasants. Like many of the African American workers of the Great Migration, some Mexicans were hired to break steel and packinghouse strikes in the late 1910s and early 1920s, thus placing them in conflict with European workers. Initially, enganchistas, labor recruiters, worked in Northern Mexico and parts of the US Southwest to recruit Mexican laborers. Migration accelerated in the 1920s as word spread of <b>...</b>

filedig.com Mexican Mafia Drug Wars.Drugs are big business and big business means big money means stiff competition. In a normal industry simply try to beat the competition by making a better product or by building a good brand. In the drugs business you simply try to do away with the competition by killing them. Pablo Escobar did it and the Mexican drug gangs have been at it a while too. This year alone thousands of people have been killed in Mexico due to the drug wars and the town of Ciudad Juarez is often the battlefield. As long as the demand is there the supply will keep on coming and death, destruction and wealth with it.WARNING GRAPHIC CONTENT.
