The State of Veracruz

The state is a crescent-shaped strip of land wedged between the Sierra Madre Oriental to the west and the Gulf of Mexico to the east. Its total area is 78,815 km2 (30,430.6 sq mi), accounting for about 3.7% of Mexico’s total territory. It stretches about 650 km (403.9 mi) north to south, but its width varies from between 212 km (131.7 mi) to 36 km (22.4 mi), with an average of about 100 km (62.1 mi) in width. Veracruz shares common borders with the states of Tamaulipas (to the north), Oaxaca and Chiapas (to the south), Tabasco (to the southeast), and Puebla, Hidalgo, and San Luis Potosí (on the west). Veracruz has 690 km (428.7 mi) of coastline with the Gulf of Mexico.

Waterways

Faltan muchos ríos por los Tuxtlas.

Falta ponerle nombre a varios ríos.

Estrategia para mapear cuando la vegetación no deja ver el río: activar la capa Thunderforest Landscape y guiarse por las curvas de nivel - buscar la parte más baja del valle; se ve como "(((((".
