ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Northern Mexico

Okay, imagine a big map of the world. Do you see that part of the map that goes up and down on the right side of the United States? That's Mexico. Now, let's focus on the part that is on the top part of Mexico. That's what we call the northern part or Northern Mexico.

So, in Northern Mexico, it's really hot, dry, and you can see a lot of cactus plants around. This place is also known for having mountain ranges that are very high and can be covered in snow. In some areas, it can be really hard for people to farm because the soil isn't great for growing things. However, there are still some places where people can grow crops like wheat, corn, and beans.

Lots of people in Northern Mexico speak Spanish, but some speak Native American languages too. There are also many different cultures and traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation. When people think of Northern Mexico, they might also think of delicious food like tacos and burritos!

Overall, Northern Mexico is a really cool and unique place with its own environments, people, and cultures.
