Is Mexico considered part of Central America?

I'm curious because I know it's a huge, beautiful country (I love Mexico) but I was wondering if it is considered a part of North America (like Canada/USA) or Central America (ie-Guatemala, Honduras, etc.) Could someone please tell me?

Mexico is part of NORTH America. In, fact, all of Central America is actually part of North America. "Central America" is just a designation referring to an area which is part of North America. See article below and read the very first sentence. Then see the 2nd site and read the very first sentence. You will see that Mexico and "Central"America are part of the North American continent.

technically its considered North america. There is no continent called central america. Central america is just the middle of the america's but its not a real continent.

Mexico is usually not considered part of Central America.

Depends on your source. All of Central America is technically part of North America. When defining cental America there is different definitions. Per the UN, Central America includes Mexico, but according to the EU, Mexico and Belize are not part of Central America. Geopolitically, Mexico is usually included in 'North' America.

Hi...well I hope this helps... Mexico is considered a North American country...


dougger
Both geographically and politically Mexico is considered part of North America. It is part of Latinamerica and is a member of the Various latinamerican organizations that exclude the USA and Canada. It is also a part of the North American Trade group, which excludes all the rest of Latinamerica.
SOmehow it is not yet benefiting from having the best of both worlds.

Mexico is considered part of North America, HOWEVER, the Yucatan Pennisula of Mexico is SOMETIMES considered part of Central America.

In school I learn Mexico is part of North America like Canada and USA.
America is one CONTINENT divided in 3 :NORTH,CENTRAL & SOUTH.
USA :UNITED STATES "OF" AMERICA
IS ONLY PART.
many people is confused in Europe because the other countries don't
said America. for example Mexico .
Honduras, El Salvador no one add America or Central, North or South.
People in Europe said for example I'm going to America> for me that sound like they will visiting all from Canada to Brasil. And for them is only USA.

It's officially part of the continent 'North America'. 'Central America' is only a region. The Countries that are considered part of 'Central America' are Belize(not always), Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, El Salvador and Dominican Republic, Mexico isn't included. All of these countries are also part of 'North America'.
