Mexico's 30 centuries of history can be comfortably divided into four broad periods:

• Category:Pre-Hispanic Mesoamerica – from pre-historic times up until the arrival of the conquistadors in the 1510s.

• Category:Colonial Mexico – covering the history of New Spain from the fall of Tenochtitlán in 1521 until the Wars of Independence in the 1810s.

• Category:Independent Mexico – the Mexico of the 19th century (including two short-lived empires and the loss of half the nation's territory) prior to the Mexican Revolution of 1910.
  • Category:Mexican-American War
  • Category:Mexican Revolution

• Category:Modern Mexico – the Revolution and the post-revolutionary period (the "armed" and "institutional" phases of the Revolution) up to the present day.
