Marcus and Narcissa Whitman were among the early settlers of the West, pioneers of the Oregon Trail. Their missionary party, headed to Oregon in 1836, included also Henry and Eliza Spalding. The two wives were the first white women to cross the Rocky Mountains. Over time, the Whitmans' work in the West contributed more to white settlement in the region than it did to the betterment of the Native America peoples they sought to work with. The Whitmans and a dozen other white settlers were killed by some of the Cayuse people in 1847 in what became known as the Whitman massacre. The Spaldings were not among those killed in that event. Henry Spalding continued to work among native tribes in the West.
Answer:
General Taylor's troops crossed into the "Mexican Territory."
Explanation:
The spark of the "Mexican-American" war happened when General Taylor's troops crossed into the "Mexican Territory." This happened when President Polk tried to re-establish diplomatic relations with Mexico because the country broke relations in early <em>1845.</em>
Despite the U.S. government's effort, the Mexican government refused to communicate. General Taylor then sent his troops across the Rio Grande so they could communicate with the Mexican officials. The crossing of the troops at the Mexican territory was deemed an act of war for the Mexicans, since<em> it was an invasion of their territory</em>. This started the Mexican-American war and it kicked off. This then resulted to the Mexicans crossing the border and attacking some American soldiers.
