For when they took over land? well you have to know that Mexico did not want to give land to America. Eventually though, due to Mexico not having alot of people to live on said land they told Americans that they could settle there .. ONLY if they became Mexicans and they converted to Catholicism. Americans of coarse agreed...BUT......many didn't fuffil that promise . It could be said and arued that the domanent strategy for America was to settle on the land and take it over from the inside.
The answer is: The sea
Back then, the techology that exist to travel by sea was not as developed as it is today. If an empire decided to travel through the sea in order to do some conquests, that empire will risk several things, such as:
- Loss in directions
- The ships could be swallowed by harsh wheather in the middle of the sea
- It need a lot of resources to maintain the armies during the travel
Maybe it means that there’s a difference between how much land they own or something. It says there was a difference between the amount of land they occupied and the amount of land they couldn’t control. So maybe they didn’t own/have a lot of land but there was a lot of land they couldn’t get to/take over etc. or maybe this situation could be vice versa so they have a ton of land but only a little isn’t “controlled” let me know if this helps sorry if it’s confusing I’m just guessing based on the context clues :)
