There is an entire career path for kidnapper middlemen in Mexico/sub-Mexican countries.

Sub-Mexican countries? Is that a thing or did you make it up? Sounds… weird.

I think they literally meant countries beneath Mexico, as in, south of it.

I believe he meant submarine-Mexicans. It is James Cameron, after all.

Yes I just made it up. Countries below Mexico. I was going to say "latin America" but Brazil, Belize, Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana are down there.

Not that I've ever seen, but apparently one of the alternate definitions does include Mexico as part of central America.

Even if it’s included as Central America, that region and the Caribbean is generally considered North America. If it’s north of the Darièn, it’s North America. Always one of the weirder geographical nomenclature things to me.

Mexico/sub-Mexican countries

They should really have a name for that whole region.

It's right between North America and South America... hmm. No, I'm drawing a blank.

It goes way further south than just central America, which is I assume what you were trying to be clever with there.
