While the public's fear of foreign involvements in continental North America may have concurred with Polk's agenda, the war he fought against Mexico that began in May 1846 and concluded in February 1848 sparked widespread criticism throughout political, journalistic, and literary circles in addition to strong support.

Polk instructed Slidell to make an offer that the U.S. would pay off Mexico's debt in order to acquire "Upper California and New Mexico" and would spend as much as $40 million to purchase the land.

Emperor Ashoka decided to convert to Buddhism because one day he realized the damage he had created to other people during the Kalinga War. He felt remorse and he changed his life. He found peace in the teachings of Budha and considered it beneficial to all humans and animals, to the degree he ordered to build many temples or stupas.
