Colima Mexico has 1 of highest murder rate per capita & 1 of the highest crime rates, due to its ports being a contested area for cartels and cartel activities.
It is the 4th smallest federal entity after Tlaxcala, Morelos & the Federal District of Mexico City, containing only 0.3% of the country's total territory. The state is in the middle of Mexico's Pacific coast, bordered by the Pacific Ocean & the states of Jalisco & Michoacán.
Colima cartel has become a branch of the Sinaloa Cartel as are the Milenio Cartel, Guadalajara Cartel, & Sonora Cartels.
Colima marks the latest manifestation of violence in one of Mexico’s smallest yet deadliest states — a dubious honor attributable to Colima’s location along the territorial fault lines dividing Mexico’s most powerful cartels.

Campeche was part of the province of Yucatán but split off in the mid-19th century, mostly due to political friction with the city of Mérida.
Much of Campeche mexico state's recent economic revival is due to the discovery of petroleum offshore in the 1970s,
The name of Campeche is derived from the Maya name of a settlement called “Ah-Kin-Pech” where the city of Campeche is now. When the Spanish first arrived to the area in 1517, they called it Lazaro, since "the day of our landing was St. Lazarus' Sunday". The native name means “place of snakes and ticks.”
