The history of Freemasonry in Mexico can be traced to at least 1806 when the first Masonic lodge was formally established in the nation.
Many presidents of Mexico were Freemasons.

Hence escoceses became synonymous with Conservatives, and yorkinos with Liberals. Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna was a Scottish Rite Mason.
