My experience reaserching mexico was very interesting. mexico was a great country to research on because of its very diverse traditions. Mexico has some great looking foods that arent found anywhere else. there music and dance especially is very unique and very interesting to see and hear. The sports teams Mexico has is very good and they are very fun to watch because they are good.

Compared to the U.S. Mexico has many differences but some things that are alike are the diverse traditions. Unlike Mexico these traditions are not the same as ones found in the U.S. but they are just as unique and interesting because of how people perform or how people privatly do traditions. the food here is also much different from mexico and is better. the sports are much better to watch because mexico is bad at sports
