-----QUESTIONS/ANSWERS MEXICAN NATIONALITY EXAM 2018----- They will take you to a secret conference room where they will give you 5 minutes on a timer to answer 10 multiple choice questions. I was told that to date, no one has passed this particular exam. I am hereby providing this guide anonymously as a token of my love & respect for the Mexican people & my desire to educate the international community about our beautiful culture & history. The questions I was given, to the best of my recollection, along with their corresponding answers were the following (the parentheses mean that I don't remember the exact wording/name & am paraphrasing): 1: Que lugar ocupa la economia de Mexico en el mundo? - 15o lugar 2: Quien fue el astronauta mexicano que viajó al espacio en la misón STS-61-B del Transbordador Espacial Atlantis? - Rodolfo Neri Vela 3: Como se llama (la cultura) que inventó el "0"? - Maya 4: Cual es la comida tipica de Nuevo Leon? - Cabrito 5: Cual es el significado del nombre "Cuauhtemoc" en el idioma náhuatl? - El Aguila del Sur 6: Como se llama el premio concedido anualmente por la Academia Mexicana de Artes y Ciencias Cinematograficas? - Ariel 7: El arpa tiene un lugar privilegiado en la musica de que estado mexicano? - Vera Cruz 8: Como se llamaba el dios azteca de la guerra? - Huitzilopochtli 9: A que se refiere (el apelativo) de La Mujer Dormida y (El Cerro Que Humea)? - Iztaccihuatl y Popocatepetl 10: Que faceta de la cultura mexicana fue representada por (Alfonso Reyes,) Juan Rulfo, y (Rosario Castellanos)? - La narrativa mexicana NOTE: There are multiple versions of this test. This is the one to which I was given access. If anyone sees or takes a different version THIS YEAR, please upload your recollection of the questions/answers. We would all be much obliged.

I agree with some of that. I think what you may not be aware of is the soul of a Mexican. Caballerismo rules here. They are forced by Centuries of culture to be friendly, kind, hospitable ... in face to face situations. What they say or what they think is something you'll never know. Our observations fall into what's called, the fallacy of visual knowledge. Dood, I've been here for more than half my life. Once a Mexican gets beyond my appearance they think of me as a Mexican. I know nobody wants to hear that sh*t but that's how it is. If you saw the Chapala video I posted a few weeks ago, the narrator, who spoke the clearest most coherent Spanish you could ever hope for, made some points. One was that only a small portion of the locals are native locals. Your locals came from all over Mexico looking for employment. Not much different than those who go to the USA. Why aren't street dogs human-aggressive? They're dependant. Get my drift? Doesn't matter what the people think of us, it's the analisis the government heads have decided what's best for them, not the nation, them. As much of the USA is worried about the browning of America maybe the government here is worried about the whiting of Mexico. The people want your cash and some want your cash and whatever you bring that would make their life better. Too bad they don't represent the ruling body.

Next to my middle finger.

So , in fact, no Mexican, except one with doctorates in several disciplines, would ever be able to pass the Mexican citizenship test.
