    all of the posts on the North American thorntree concern the
    U.S. and Canada. BTW--you're not the first one to think
    that they are pointing something out that hasn't been
    pointed out before.

    I wanted posters to be aware that they may get a better
    response if their post was in the correct branch of the

    Mexico is in Central America.

    I am an American who lives in Chiapas. Chiapas is barely a
    part of Mexico, much less a part of "North America". Most

    we ever receive about this area is on the CA bulletin board.

    One of my profesors told us in class that mexico's

    the US and canada concerning culture, the type of plants
    and animals, language, etc. I agree with the above post in
    that chiapas is more like guatemala, since it used to be
    part of that country. it just makes more sense mexico be a
    part of central america. and everyone posts on the CA tree
    anyways since most people hit mexico and travel south thru
    the other countries like guatemala, belize, and

    You want culture? The USA has toilet paper. If that doesn't
    matter to you then Mexico is just the place!
