  • The battle was a decisive victory for the Americans, widely regarded as the most important naval battle in the Pacific campaign in World War II. The battle permanently weakened the Imperial Japanese Navy, especially with the loss of four aircraft carriers and over 200 irreparable, experienced Navy pilots.
  • Both countries suffered casualties in the battle, but Japan was powerless to rebuild its naval forces, while at the same time the US shipbuilding and training program for new pilots provided rapid replenishment.

Explanation:

Confederate power in the New Mexico Territory was effectively broken when the campaign culminated in the Union victory at the Battle of Glorieta Pass in 1862. However, the territorial government continued to operate out of Texas, and Confederate troops marched under the Arizona flag until the end of the war.

New Mexico became a state in January 6, 1912

For both New Mexico and Arizona, the road to statehood was protracted and contentious. However, after much effort, on January 6, 1912 New Mexico became the 47th state and on February 14, 1912 Arizona became the 48th state in the Union.
