Not only do the Swiss have traditional clothing, but the Swiss Guard, who are the personal guards of the Pope, still wear it.
Nobody. At the time, Mexico was still a colony of Spain.
Most of them are (surprise!) made in China. There is however, a still-alive-but-struggling clothing manufacturing industry in Mexico.

Spain was interested in the lands north of Mexico due to its rich gold and silver deposits, which to this day, still contribute more than 70% of Mexico's precious metals production.
Spain still occupied a few strongholds after Mexico's independence was consummated in 1821, such as the San Juan de Ulua fortress, on the port city of Veracruz -- which didn't surrender to Mexican forces until 1825. Spain even tried to reconquer Mexico several times, between 1821 and 1829. All political and economic ties between Mexico and Spain became slowly severed due to Spain's reluctance to grant Mexico's independence, and by 1836 -- the year Spain finally recognized Mexico's independence -- Mexico was already alienated to Spain, while being involved with other conflicts, such as the Texas Revolution (1835-1836).
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.

On the date you are referring to, Mexico was still a colony of Spain. The viceroy of such colony at the time was Francisco Javier Venegas (1760-1838).
None. During that year Mexico was still a colony of Spain, governed by viceroy Juan Ruiz de Apodaca.
Yes, some people in the Netherlands still wear traditional clothing. Most of them are elderly and very strictly Calvinistic Reformed woman. It is worn by most on Sundays, Feast, birthday's etc., however a limited number of people wears it daily. Towns where traditional clotting are worn include: Spakenburg, Volendam, Staphorst, Rouveen, Bunschoten and Eemdijk.
