Los Zetas is a Mexican criminal syndicate, known as one of the most dangerous of Mexico's drug cartels. They are known for engaging in brutally violent "shock and awe" tactics such as beheadings, torture, and indiscriminate murder. While primarily concerned with drug trafficking, the organization also runs profitable sex and gun rackets. Los Zetas also operate through protection rackets, assassinations, extortion, kidnappings and other illegal activities. The organization is based in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, directly across the border from Laredo, Texas.

In February 2010, Los Zetas broke away and formed their own criminal organization, rivalling the Gulf Cartel.

This is a list of events that happened in 2010 in Mexico. The article also lists the most important political leaders during the year at both federal and state levels.

Rubén Nuñez de Cáceres was a professor and the founder/director of the Centro de Valores Humanos of the Tec de Monterrey, Campus Tampico.

El Duende was a Dominican newspaper from Santo Domingo founded by José Núñez de Cáceres. It was the second Dominican paper. It printed its first issue just a few days after Núñez de Cáceres' second paper, El Telégrafo Continental de Santo Domingo, had appeared. Both papers were the result of an increasing politicization among the Dominican criollos in Santo Domingo, who were at the time under the Spanish colonial government. Political satire, opinions, and dialogue about the colony's relation with Spain were the main uses of this paper. Though it lasted for only four months, it left a precedent that inspired similar contributions later in the 19th century. Through it, Núñez de Cáceres developed himself as a fabulist, publishing stories he signed as "El Fabulista Principiante" (novice).
