	Estado de Mexico should be an option for Mexico State

	chronosaurus:	Oct 7th, 2008 at 01:04 GMT		32 points
	Yeah, both "Mexico" and "Estado de Mexico" should be valid options.

	Isn't is also referred to as the Federal District?

	kcap1:	Nov 23rd, 2008 at 09:54 GMT		-4 points
	I agree Cartophiliac, I tried Federal District with no success.

	The Federal District is not the same as Mexico State. I think the FD is the little purple-colored area between Mexico State and Morelos. It is not part of any state, so it's not in this quiz (just like DC, which is not in the U.S. states quiz).

	Mexico State = Estado (Libre y Soberano) de México, the capital: Toluca (de Lerdo); Mexico City = Ciudad de México = México, D.F. = Distrito Federal

	My favourite - only knew a couple before becoming a sporcle addict. Now I know them all! Thanks!

	I can't believe I forgot Queretaro. La Catrina would be ashamed.

	"Estado de Mexico" should definitely count for "mexico state". I've never heard it stated like that.

	lauraellen:	Aug 9th, 2009 at 16:44 GMT		11 points
	really, "Mexico" should count. you don't have to add "state" or "estado" to any of the other state.

	When the hell did Aguas Calientes slide over to the coast and conquer Nayarit? Seriously, if you don't get A.C. first, it looks bee zar. Best quiz yet, cuz I knew all the answers. :D

	@tophats: I only got Queretaro because of La Catrina. =:)

	coolth3:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 01:34 GMT		4 points
	mexico state? you have to be kidding me, It should be Estado de Mexico, I spent most of the time typing that in

	briantravelman:	Oct 11th, 2009 at 23:28 GMT		-4 points
	Mexico City is also a state! Oh and..how do you guys get your maps on there?

	why is Guanajuato so low in the ratings?! Arriba Leon!

	nuxix08:	Dec 17th, 2009 at 13:16 GMT		3 points
	Good - though "Mexico State" is odd. Ideally, "Mexico," "Estado de Mexico" and even "Edomex" should count. And no love for the DF? It can be its own answer..

	katya:	Feb 28th, 2010 at 03:50 GMT		1 point
	being an ignorant american, i had only heard of a few of these... working on learning them... i want to know how to pronounce them. pretty much the only non-spanish sounding or obvious one i know how to say is oaxaca... does anyone know where to find a pronunciation guide? haha

	I love having a chihuahua for a pet! Helped me actually get one right! :)

	HEY SPORCLE!! please change "Mexico State". You've been asked nicely a number of times. Gracias.

	samcash13593:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 11:49 GMT		1 point
	damn i only got 3, an all time low. actually i was happy with my score, i have never heard of most of them, and i guess yucatan would be a state. @chriskotx is that a map of texas republic?

	Before I tried this quiz, I knew no Mexican states. Now I know almost all. Thank you, Sporcle!! =D

	7, not bad for an American

	Mexico City... Baja California... Uh...

	agentkuog:	Oct 8th, 2011 at 19:46 GMT		1 point
	I've done the U.S States, the Canadian territories, the South American countries, and now I'm doing the States of Mexico. This is by far the hardest to master.

	OMG it's literally been a year since I last played it and now I am up to 4. I am evidently a veeerrrryyyy slow learner.

	I used to know every single state in Mexico, but I got 1/31.

	eriedearie:	Nov 26th, 2011 at 13:26 GMT		1 point
	Durn. I put Baja but I guess that's not specific enough.... But anyway I thought I would be able to get more!

	I only got Nuevo Leon because its the only mexican state I've actually seen a licence plate from.

	i can never remember how to spell michoacan

	risuku:	May 31st, 2012 at 01:38 GMT		2 points
	seeing as states that have accented letters in their names and accept answers with the accents, shouldn't Mexico (state) have México (with the accent over the 'e') be an acceptable answer? as well as show the accent on the map label like the other accented letters?

	risuku:	May 31st, 2012 at 01:46 GMT		1 point
	also, would it be possible to allow 'Baja Norte' and 'Baja Sur' as possible additional acceptable answers for 'Baja California' and 'Baja California Sur' respectively? it gets a bit anoying having to type Baja California both times.

	Mexico City, or Districto Federal, should probably be on the quiz.
