Geography question:

Compared to the other two countries in North America (Canada and the USA), what geographic advantages does a Mexican government have when it comes to governing a nation state?




Demographics question:

Using the birth, death and "net migration" rates, calculate the population growth rate per 1000 inhabitants. Write a brief speculative essay on the implications of these numbers for Mexico’s regime.




Comparison question:

What does the Mexican "net migration rate" suggest about the political future of the US regime? Why?
