The World Fackbook says ....\n\nThe site of advanced Amerindian civilizations, Mexico came under Spanish rule for three centuries before achieving independence early in the 19th century. A devaluation of the peso in late 1994 threw Mexico into economic turmoil, triggering the worst recession in over half a century. The nation continues to make an impressive recovery. Ongoing economic and social concerns include low real wages, underemployment for a large segment of the population, inequitable income distribution, and few advancement opportunities for the largely Amerindian population in the impoverished southern states. Elections held in July 2000 marked the first time since the 1910 Mexican Revolution that the opposition defeated the party in government, the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI). Vicente FOX of the National Action Party (PAN) was sworn in on 1 December 2000 as the first chief executive elected in free and fair elections.

After the Mexican-American War, the United States paid Mexico $15 million (the Treaty of Guadulupe Hidalgo) for what is now California, Nevada, Utah, most of Arizona, and parts of Colorado, Wyoming, and New Mexico.  Texas won its War of Independence from Mexico in 1836, and later joined the United States as a slave state in 1845.\n\nThe United States later purchased the southern portion of Arizona, as well as the panhandle portion of New Mexico, in 1853 (the Gadsden Purchase) for $10 million.

The U.S. doesn't have an official language as such ... but we should have!!  And present day Mexicans have no claim whatsoever over any part of the U.S. ... even the Mexican constitution acknowledges where the border is drawn, and what belongs to Mexico ... and having read their constitution, I didn't find one reference to California or New Mexico or whatever they want to claim belongs to Mexico ... we have to deal with the realities of TODAY ... not the realities of hundreds of years ago ... at the same token, Russia could then claim Estonia again ... Sweden could claim the ports of Germany .... and on and on it goes ....

The US–Mexican War was a military conflict fought between the United States and Mexico in the years 1846 to 1848, in the wake of the U.S. annexation of Texas in 1845. Mexico had always refused to recognize the loss of Texas in 1836 and announced its intention to take back what it considered a rebel province. In the United States, the war was a partisan issue, supported by most Democrats and opposed by most Whigs. Popular belief in the Manifest Destiny of the United States ultimately translated into public support for the war. In Mexico, the war was considered a matter of national pride.\n\nThe most important consequence of the war was the Mexican Cession, in which the Mexican territories of California and New Mexico were ceded to the United States. The question of extending slavery to these new territories was a catalyst that helped bring on the American Civil War just 15 years later. In Mexico, the enormous loss of territory which resulted from the war encouraged the central government to enact policies to colonize its northern territories as a hedge against further losses.\n\nIn the U.S., the war is sometimes called the Mexican War. In Mexico, it is called la intervención norteamericana (the North American Intervention) or la guerra del 47 (the War of '47).

The Mexican Cession is a historical name for the region of the present day southwestern United States that was ceded to the U.S. by Mexico in 1848 under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo following the Mexican-American War. The cession of this territory from Mexico was a condition for the end of the war. For the 38 years between 1810, when Mexico declared its independence from Spain, and 1848, the region had formed approximately one-third of the territory of Mexico; prior to that, it had been a part – albeit a remote one, largely without European settlement – of the Spanish colony of New Spain for some three centuries.\n\nIt includes all of the present-day states of California, Nevada, and Utah, as well as the portions of:\n\nArizona excluding the region later annexed in the Gadsden Purchase \nColorado west of the boundary of the former Republic of Texas \nNew Mexico west of the Rio Grande and excluding the Gadsden Purchase \nWyoming west of the former Republic of Texas boundary and south of the 42nd parallel. \nThe treaty also specified the U.S.-Mexican border as being at the Rio Grande (Río Bravo del Norte). Previously the portion of Texas between the Nueces River and the Rio Grande had remained disputed throughout the existence of the Republic of Texas. The United States had already claimed the area as part of the Texas Annexation in 1845.

Legal rights.  In the USA, you are innocent until proven guilty.  In Mexico, you are guilty until proven innocent.  This is a big distinction from the two countries.  The heritage of each nation affected how the laws were written and used by its people.

Hey thewanderer862004.  I think you need to read up on American history.  The US did attack and capture Mexico City, but we gave it back because it was 2 weeks after the end of the Mexican-American war in 1848.\n\nHowever, The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, signed on February 2, 1848, ended the war and gave the U.S control of Texas, California, Nevada, Utah, and parts of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and Wyoming.
