Nueva Italia (New Italy) is a city in the state of Michoacán, is located in the so-called Tierra Caliente Michoacana. == History == The town was founded in 1909 by Italian Dante Cusi to become the leading producer of cotton, rice, melon and maize of all of Mexico. It introduced waters of the Rio del Marquez to the arid region to make the soil fertile. In addition is the Rio Cupatitzio, through which channels and traps forms one of the largest irrigation complexes in Latin America. Lastly, the railroad allowed the opportunity for children from Italy to come. Subsequently, there was a ranch built, but is now in ruins. On February 3, 1942, New Italy separated from the municipality of Parácuaro to form the new municipality of Zaragoza. In 1969 the municipality changed its name to "Mugica". Because of this the population of Nueva Italia increased rapidly, which allowed a subsequent boom in work around Michoacán, mainly in Parácuaro and Apatzingán. People also came throughout Mexico, with significant numbers from Sinaloa and Guerrero in particular. An interesting fact is that Nueva Italia has the largest ejido of all Mexico with more than 22,000 hectares. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nueva Italia, Michoacán」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
