Yucatan

Located in southeastern Mexico, the Yucatan is one of the 31 states which, with the Federal District, comprise the 32 Federal Entities of Mexico. It is divided in 106 municipalities, and its capital city is Mérida.  The landscape is distinctly tropical with short and tall jungles being the predominate vegetation.  The Yucatan Penisula lies in the Atlantic Hurricane Belt and suffers from severe damage from extreme weather patterns due to the relatively flat topography.
Stevens references the Yucatan several times in his mock epic poem The Comedian as the Letter C.  Yucatan is one of the more exotic locations that hero Crispin wishes to visit on his voyage.   It represents the exotic, the mysterious, and definitely the colorful.
