Thread: Help answer this Please?

Out of shear curiosity, I did a search to find out "How Many" Mexican Consulates were in this Country. Here is what I found:
41 Consulates
1 Embassy

My question is this... WHY?

There are actually more than that, if you count the satillite locations and mobile consulates.

Mexicans need passports to travel back to Mexico because they came here without one. Actually, they use the passport as identification too.

Here's something else they're adding across this country.
