The politics of Mexico function within a framework of a federal presidential representative democratic republic whose government is based on a multi-party congressional system,where the President of Mexico is both head of state and head of government. The federal government represents the United Mexican States and is divided into three branches:executive,legislative and judicial,as established by the Political Constitution of the United Mexican States,published in 1917. The constituent states of the federation must also have a republican form of government based on a congressional system as established by their respective constitutions.
