The Mexican–American War, also known in America as the Mexican War and in Mexico as the American intervention, was an armed conflict between the United States of America and Mexico from 1846 to 1848.

It could be said that this conflict was motivated in part by the Americans manifest destiny, which claimed that it was the United States' right to expand westward and conquer territories, as well as the wishes of some South Americans to gain more "slave states" in order to increase their political power.

At the end of this war in 1848, with the signing and ratification of the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo, Mexico had lost about one-third of its territory, including the present California, Utah, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico.

How were the founding fathers influenced by the idea of Natural Law and Natural Rights? Which of the ideas listed below do you c
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer and Explanation:

1. They were influenced by John Locke who introduced them to the rules of natural rights and natural law. Locke explained to the founding fathers that according to these concepts, all individuals are equal and are born with some inalienable rights, which cannot be removed or modified by anyone, as they are given by God and are important for everyone's survival. The founding fathers found these concepts coherent and adopted these thoughts.

2. In my opinion the Enlightenment was the most important idea, because it generated the necessary framework for the current society that we know and deprived us of many annoying people, but all the ideas mentioned were important in their own ways.
