The Town That Forgot It Was Part of the United States

International borders can be very strange things. Sometimes they measured down to the millimeter and a heavily marked and fortified. Other times they run through desolate areas where hardly anyone pays attention to the actual location. The latter was the case with much of the US/Mexican border in the early 20th century, and it caused a great deal of confusion. Learn more about Rio Rico, the American town that everyone thought was a Mexican town, and then it actually was, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
