Enjoy Mexico. Hope to see you there this winter if our dog is better. - Well lets see, maize was first cultivated by semi nomad tribes in the valley of Tehucan, in what is now the State of Puebla, as time passed the various hunters and gatherers tribes began to settle down and start cultures.
Cultures came and went, the Toltecas, Teotihuacanos, Olmecas, Zapotecas, Chichimecas, Tlascaltecas, Cholultecas, and of course the Aztecs and the Mayas.
Then came the Spaniards, they conquered, not because they had better arms or horses, they had slaves from Africa that had smallpox, that killed most of the population, including the warriors that tried to defend the cities, the Mayas were the last to surrender, first known use of bio-warfare in the American Continent .
Mexico is a land of ancient cultures and very modern at the same time, take the time and read some of the history and get information on the places that you are thinking of going to.
By all means treat the people in Mexico with respect and dignity, and you shall receive more in return than what you could ever expect.

It happens to all of Us sometimes!
Anyway We have been travelling to Mexico by road/ RV since 1999 so do have most of the information that You are asking for!
Send Me a Private Message as any information that I post here gets picked apart by the naysayers on Mexican Travel! - Westhet is perhaps the most puzzling part of the question :)
Other parts are easier to understand, though I doubt that there can be a useful answer to that. "Cover everything", no kidding... - You might want to go back and edit to fix the typos - it's kinda hard to understand what you are asking.
Did you use a Smartphone by any chance?
