Travel to Chiapas photo copyrighted by: VICTOR OVIES Chiapas has one of Mexico's most rural populations and remains an important locale for native groups, particularly those of Mayan origins. About a quarter of the population speaks a native dialect, the most important of which are Tzeltal and Tzotzil. Although most of the population is Roman Catholic (71 percent) like elsewhere in Mexico, Chiapas has the highest percentage of Protestants (16 percent) and individuals declaring no religion (13 percent).
