(in Dutch) [noted -ed]
The capital city of the country is known in Dutch as Mexico-Stad, which literally means "Mexico City". The city is never referred to as simply "Mexico" in Dutch, so personally, I wouldn't say that the category of "Settlement" applies to the usage of Dutch.

(in English; note that "Mexico" is erroneous for Dutch and that the proper spelling is actually Mexico-Stad instead of Mexico-stad)
