Why Is the Online Casino Industry Thriving in Mexico?
Gambling is quite a peculiar practice. Some countries have banned it, while others have welcomed it with open arms.
Gambling is legal in Mexico, but it needs to be done in an authorized establishment. There are 200 casinos in the country. Online casinos are not properly regulated. The Ministry of Interior has the authority to grant licenses for gambling establishments. It also has authority for horse race betting, greyhound racetracks, and cockfighting. The government banned slots back in 2013. Gambling in this land dates back to the Aztecs. In the 19th century, France colonized Mexico and there were several casinos. After the end of the First World War, the gambling industry declined. However, it has been on the rise since 2004.
