Mexico is a federal republic composed of 32 federative entities (Spanish: entidades federativas): 31 states and Mexico City.[1] According to the Constitution of Mexico, the states of the federation are free and sovereign in all matters concerning their internal affairs.[2] Since 2016, Mexico City has been a fully autonomous entity on par with the states. Each state federative entity has its own congress and constitution.
