Mexico, well... Wikipedia[1] says it best:
"In English speaking countries, Central America is considered a region
of the North American continent
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continent>.^[58]
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_America#cite_note-57> (!)
Geopolitically, it usually comprises seven countries – Belize,
Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and
Panama.^[59]
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_America#cite_note-Central_America-Britannica-58>
Mexico <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexico>, in whole or in part, is
sometimes included.^[60]
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_America#cite_note-59> Some
geographers include the five states
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_divisions_of_Mexico> of Campeche
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campeche>, Chiapas
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiapas>, Tabasco
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabasco>, Quintana Roo
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintana_Roo>, and Yucatán
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yucat%C3%A1n>,^[59]

together representing 12.1% of the country's total area."
