In Spanish, Mexico City is spelled "Ciudad de México." The name translates directly to "City of Mexico." The use of "Ciudad" emphasizes its status as a city, while "México" refers to the country it is the capital of.
Torreon was founded in 1893 as an industrial city and is currently the 9th largest metro area in the country of Mexico. This desert area has little rainfall and is sunny with a warm climate year round. It is home to the 3rd largest statue in Latin America. Standing at 71.5 feet, Cristo de las Noas is a statue of Jesus atop a majestic hill with his arms out which symbolizes protection of the people of Torreon. A 70,000 square foot religious complex with a detailed depiction of the Nazarene surrounds the monument. The Plaza de Armas is a central meeting place made up of businesses, shops, and hotels. Tourists and natives young and old meet here and experience a warm sense of community and unity. Torreon provides a taste of old Mexico rich in history and tradition that is mixed in with a new and fast paced metropolitan. Visit in September to experience their main festival.
No. Tenochtitlan was the capital of the Aztec Empire (1325 - 1521). After their conquest by Spanish conquistadors, it was renamed as Mexico City, and it became the capital of the "New Spain" (as Mexico became a colony of Spain). After Mexico's War of Independence, Mexico City still maintained its status as the most populous and important city of the new country, and thus became the official capital of Mexico.

It depends on what are you looking for. Relaxation in a beach? Cancun or Los Cabos. Snorkeling or fishing? Puerto Vallarta and Cozumel. Historic places? Queretaro and Guanajuato. A cosmopolite city? Mexico City and Guadalajara are your best choices. You should refrain from visiting cities along or close to the US-Mexico border, as these are some of the ugliest, most violent and crime-ridden in the country. Some examples include Juarez, Nuevo Laredo or Torreon.
If you mean the "Federal District" yes, it is the political division where Mexico City lies, and it is administered by the federal government. It has the same kind of status as Washington DC has.
