TORRAS CONANGLA, Rosa. Demolishing regions and creating States: The conflict of the internal borders in the case of Palizada River. Península [online]. 2008, vol.3, n.2, pp.57-71. ISSN 1870-5766.

Using an approach based on the conflictive history of jurisdictional boundaries between the states of Campeche and Tabasco, immersed in the region of Ríos del Usumacinta, we will present a number of key elements for discussing how the colonization projects and the disputes for economic hegemony interwove with the larger national undertaking in nineteenth-century Mexico, namely the integration of its territory and subsequent "mexicanization".

Palabras llave : border regions; territoriality; Campeche; Tabasco; nineteenth century.
