There are five regions in Coahuila:
Carboniferous Region ‘Tribal Coahuila’.
It is the main coal producing region in the country, representing 95 percent of Mexico's reserves. Within this territory, in the town of Múzquiz, two important tribes have found a space to prosper and develop: the Kikapú Indians and the Black Mascogos tribe. Both tribes settled more than 160 years ago in the El Nacimiento neighborhood in Melchor Múzquiz.
Central Region
Located in the Northeast Center of the state of Coahuila, this is where the first Spanish colonizers arrived in 1617 and founded Monclova and Cuatro Cienegas. The residents express their joy through musical manifestations such as the chotis, the polka and the redova.
Border Region
Named for its location on the border with the United States. In this region of Coahuila, the society adopts a cultural style that reflects the relationship between these two territories; where the chords of the guitar, bajo sexto, tarola and accordion are the perfect accompaniment to give life to a series of dances that represent the lifestyle of the inhabitants of the border towns of our country.
Lagunera Region
This is the territory located in the Mapimí Bolson, where thirteen lagoons used to be located, among them the Mayrán and Viesca. The industry has had a great boom, its fairs are the scenario for the bustle of the residents of this region. Between polkas and marches, people dance and celebrate on the banks of the Nazas River. There were also important society gala balls at the Casino de La Laguna that, with their waltzes, mazurkas and contradanzas, were the delight of the attendees for almost a century; and of course, the repertoire of corridos and musical pieces that remind us of the revolutionary troop squads.
Southeast Region
Located in the southern part of the state, this region is made up of multiple municipalities with identities derived from the different ethnic groups that have populated these territories. Among the traditions that have taken root in the core of Coahuila's society, we can mention the grape harvest in the city of Parras, the festivities of etiquette among the society of Arteaga, the religious devotion of the Tlaxcalan dancers of the Ojo de Agua neighborhood and the popular festivities with northern groups in the city of Saltillo; undoubtedly a balance between history, custom and tradition.
