Mora County is located in the great state of New Mexico, in the US. Established on February 1, 1860, the county was named after the town of Mora, which takes its name from the Latin word "mora," meaning a delay or obstacle. The county was part of the Taos land grant given to the New Mexican settlers by the Mexican government in 1835.

Mora County is rich in history and cultural heritage, particularly due to its predominant Spanish and Mexican influence. The county's early settlers were mostly Spanish soldiers and colonists who established farming and ranching communities as they settled in the area.

The county gained significance during the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) when the Battle of Mora, a small but fierce conflict, occurred in January 1847. The battle was part of the larger Taos Revolt, in which Mexican and Pueblo peoples joined forces to resist the American occupation of New Mexico. After the war, Mora County became part of the US Territory of New Mexico and later, the state of New Mexico in 1912.

Today, Mora County is known for its picturesque landscape, featuring mountains, meadows, and dense forests. Its diverse ecosystem includes the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and the vast plains of the eastern side, which are home to an array of wildlife, such as deer, elk, bears, and mountain lions.

Fun fact: Mora County has a unique claim to fame in environmental issues. In 2013, it became the first county in the U.S. to permanently ban hydraulic fracturing (fracking) within its borders, in a move to protect its natural resources and water supply.
