*	Although named the United States of Mexregiona, the "states" of the Union are truly parishes: entities honorably named from the culture that the nation has obtained over time.
**	The term Mexregional generally refers to a geographical area (e.g. Mexregional Archipelago) rather than the inhabitants of the nation.
***	As of the time this article is being posted on NSwiki.

The United States of Mexregiona, commonly referred to as Mexregiona or the USM, is a federal republic composed of 61 identified and charted islands, five of which are self-governing parishes, and a vast swath of the mainland of Atlantia (which makes up the majority of the land area). The nation is semi-bordered^[1] by Prussia to the east, and completely borders Northwest Cascade to the north (both relative to the Atlantian mainland claims of these nations). It shares waters with the countries of Prussia, Sydonia, Northwest Cascade^[2], Marpa, Tretrid^[3] , The Atlae Isles, and Infinite Loop.

Mexregiona is home to about 50,911,569 inhabitants, about 75% of which live in urban areas, such as the capital: Dropdatderp, the seat of the government: Insulmin City, and the ever-sprawling city of Archopolis. With the exception of the newly founded Archopolis, just about every settlement in the country has a deep, rich history to explain the culture and views of the community. The people in these cities and towns live by these ways, fulfilling the 'Mexregionan Dream,' a term coined by the great philosopher and leader of the nation, Mister Leader I.

The nation as a whole has had a long history, but, unfortunately, much of it wasn't recorded due to both the wars the early nation had and the relative abandon for writing. Instead of delving into the art of the written word, many early Mexregionans put their resources into the work of invention. Over time, modern scientists have discovered that the prehistoric peoples of the area were far more advanced than the rest of the world. At a time where other civilizations were just starting to discover democracy and set things in motion, Mexregionans were powering through an era of electricity and machinery. The problem, according to archaeologists, was that the factions of the land were far too determined to trip up the other that nobody got anywhere once the dawn of light and power started. Many feel that if Mexregiona had found the greatness of democracy sooner, the nation would've become the Pax-Draconica of the region; a force that you can try to prevent, but it will inevitably come over you sooner or later.

Modern Mexregiona is known for its pushes into the field of science; some of its achievements include the organization of NOTER and MASTeR (space agencies in the USM) and the construction of the 'Great Wall of Mexregiona,' a disturbingly huge line of stone and other building materials that stretches along the geologic spine of the Arch Archipelago, providing both security to Western Mexregiona and pushing the definition of the nation's influence.

ETYMOLOGY

The naming of the nation has been pondered by the leading interpreters of Mexregiona (not to mention the world) for decades. Although it is set in stone that the name has to do with the language of Latin, which many Mexregionans speak fluently, it is not known what the word means. Many believe that it is a variation of fused Latin vocabulary, while others think that it was originally a misunderstood, accented, native word that transformed throughout history. Still, a great many people say that the word has no meaning at all: perhaps, they say, it is simply a placeholder to describe what early peoples saw the land as. Although the mystery may never be solved, it is true that the word Mexregiona illustrates a very strong feeling of hope and patriotism.

Notes

1. The term semi-bordered refers to the expanse of wilderness that extends from the USM's eastern border and Prussia's western. As of the time this article is published, no sovereign state has claim on the 'no man's land.'

2. Northwest Cascade, although it does share a solid ground border with the USM during both fall and winter, does not connect to the USM during the spring and summer. This phenomenon is due to the annual cycles of bodies of water in the area, including Lubricus Flumine.

3. Unlike the situation with Northwest Cascade, Tretrid never borders the USM; instead, it is separated by Parish Bay: the delta of Lubricus Flumine.
