Before Statehood: The Spanish first entered present-day Colima in 1522; the first settlement in the area was founded a year later. Throughout the years as a part of New Spain, Colima would lose territory over time from the creation of the Nueva Galicia in 1531 to becoming a part of Guadalajara in 1796. Upon the passage of the 1824 Constitution, Colima became an independent territory of Mexico, however, it was integrated as a part of Michoacán in 1837. Later in 1846, Colima became its own separate territory again. In 1856, Colima became a Mexican state.

Personality: Coy and Optimistic. She's a lovely woman who prefers to live in a quiet atmosphere. Rarely is she taken notice, but whenever she needs to be heard she won't hesitate to raise her voice; it's never a good thing to make her angry. Overall, she's usually in high spirits, especially around the winter holidays. On a side note, she's currently in a love triangle with Jalisco and Michoacán although she doesn't seem to show any interest in either suitor.
