Mazapil, one of the largest municipalities in Mexico, covers an area of 12,063 square kilometres and is located on a high plateau roughly 2,000 metres above sea level. As annual rainfall hovers between 200 and 400 millimetres, Mazapil’s climate is classified as semi-desert. Founded in 1568, Mazapil is, according to Roberto Morales Navarrete in El Economista, “one of the poorest and most marginalized municipalities in the country.”

The Dominion is a monthly paper published by an incipient network of independent journalists in Canada. It aims to provide accurate, critical coverage that is accountable to its readers and the subjects it tackles. Taking its name from Canada's official status as both a colony and a colonial force, the Dominion examines politics, culture and daily life with a view to understanding the exercise of power.
