Across the land, Meso-America was inhabited by various indigenous groups with over 14 languages been spoken and some of them ae still being spoken such as the Zapotec and the Nawan and Purepecha. Aside from the civilized curriculums that Meso-America developed then exploited by Europeans, Mexico today inherits some of its culture such as the association of indigenous groups with agriculture, combining its diverse traditions with factors of a developed civilization such as a unified Spanish language as a universal form of communication. If we analyze of who look like a typical Mexican, it’s people have diverse physical features as if they belong from continents around the world.
