<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Mexico is geographically on the North American continent. There's no actual "Central America" as a continent, but Mexico is commonly lumped in with them as a matter of economic status: Their economic status is closer to that of Central American countries than it is to Canada or the USA. |
