	Estado de Mexico should be an option for Mexico State

	chronosaurus:	Oct 7th, 2008 at 01:04 GMT	29 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	-2 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

	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	10 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	-2 points
	Mexico City is also a state! Oh and..how do you guys get your maps on there?

	briantravelman:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 00:56 GMT	-4 points
	Dude! It should be Baja California Norte and Baja California Sur as those are the actual full names!

	rifeca88:	Oct 27th, 2009 at 19:44 GMT	2 points
	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..

	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! :)

	chriskotx:	Jul 27th, 2010 at 02:18 GMT	5 points
	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?

	loser_kids:	Oct 10th, 2010 at 17:24 GMT	-4 points
	I entered Baja Norte like, 5 times before just typing Baja California, which is actually the name for the whole penninsula right? Should just be Baja Norte and Baja Sur, since thats how i always knew them as. And Mexico state? If you're going to have it in english, you might as well just have it as Mexico City, since that's more correct

	TheSanguineOne:	Jun 9th, 2011 at 05:09 GMT	2 points
	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.

	samcash13593:	Oct 21st, 2011 at 15:24 GMT	1 point
	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.

	Dumbledorefan37:	Nov 25th, 2011 at 23:45 GMT	0 points
	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!
