Today we will talk about the beautiful state of oaxaca, but before we begin, we must remember some important dates, events that marked this state and I will give a small introduction. Are you ready ?, let's start!
Oaxaca is one of the 31 states that, together with Mexico City, form the United Mexican States.
Its capital and most populous city is Oaxaca de Juárez. And one of its municipalities Abejones (Mexico), whose surface represents 0.1% of the total area of the state.
Who founded it? How did all this happen?
It happened in 1486, with the installation of a detachment of Aztec soldiers, called Huaxyacac.
Oaxaca de Juárez, Oaxaca, April 30, 2017.- This April 25, the state capital turned 485 years of having been elevated to the rank of city, title obtained in 1532, through Real Identity, granted by King Carlos V of Spain. , an act that gave way to the city that transcended the banks of the Atoyac River, to register in space and time as a testimony of struggle and hope, as a symbol of cultural identity.
The Free and Sovereign State of Oaxaca is one of the 32 federal entities of the Mexican Republic. It is located in the south of the Mexican Republic; With an area of 93,757 km², it represents 4.8% of the national territory. Its capital is the city of Oaxaca de Juárez and it is divided into 570 municipalities.
Its name comes from the Nahuatl denomination Huāxyacac, imposed by the Mexican conquerors; "Huāx" means huaje, common plant of the region of the valleys, "yaca" means nose and the suffix "c" is equivalent to "tepec", which denotes place, so Huāxyacac translates as "In the nose of the huaje ".

Customs and traditions

Tequio is an organized way of working to specify works of benefit or collective interest. A custom that we Oaxacans learn from an early age thanks to our families and teachers, who instill in us the value of common welfare.
2. Mondays of the hill.
Better known as the Guelaguetza festival, it is an ancestral tradition of pre-Hispanic roots and is the largest festival in Oaxaca. The Guelaguetza is a feast of thanks for the arrival of rains and crops. Representatives from all regions of the state are concentrated in the capital to share their culture with the world through dances, crafts and food.
