Zacatecas is a city in Mexico, the capital of the state of Zacatecas.
It was founded 1548, two years after the nearby discovery of silver,
and became an officially-recognized city in 1584.
Its population as of the 2005 census was 122,889.
Zacatecas is also the municipal seat of the municipality of Zacatecas
which surrounds the city.
The municipality had a population of 132,035 and an area of 444 km² (171.4 sq mi).
The city is the largest in the state, slightly larger than Fresnillo (pop. 110,892),
but the municipality of Fresnillo (pop. 196,538) is larger than the municipality of
Zacatecas because it includes a much larger land area with more population in its
outlying communities.
