La Paz, Baja California Sur
La Paz (, ''Peace'') is the capital city of the Mexican state of Baja California Sur and an important regional commercial center. The city had a 2010 census population of 215,178 people, but its metropolitan population is somewhat larger because of surrounding towns such as el Centenario, el Zacatal and San Pedro. Its surrounding municipality, which is the fourth-largest municipality in Mexico in geographical size, reported a population of 251,871 persons living on a land area of .〔 (Los Municipios con Mayor y Menor Extensión Territorial ), Instituto Nacional Para el Federalismo y el Desarrollo Municipal, SEGOB (Mexico.)

==History==
La Paz was first inhabited by Neolithic hunter-gatherers at least 10,000 years ago who left traces of their existence in the form of rock paintings near the city and throughout the Baja California Peninsula. On May 3, 1535, Hernán Cortés arrived in the bay by La Paz and named it Santa Cruz; he attempted to start a colony but abandoned his efforts after several years due to logistical problems.〔Chapter 2, vol. 1, ''History of California'', Theodore Henry Hittell, San Francisco: N. J. Stone & Company, 1897.〕 In 1596 Sebastián Vizcaíno arrived, giving the area its modern name, La Paz.
From January 10, 1854 to May 8, 1854 it served as the capital of William Walker's Republic of Sonora. The project collapsed due to lack of US support and pressure from the Mexican government to retake the region.
La Paz is featured in the John Steinbeck novel ''The Pearl'' (1947) and mentioned extensively in his travelogue ''The Log from the Sea of Cortez'' (1951). The city is also the setting of the children's novel ''The Black Pearl'' (1967) by Scott O'Dell, chosen as a Newbery Honor Book in 1968.〔(Newbery Medal and Honor Books, 1922-Present ), ALSC, American Library Association.
