<span>In 1845, the Republic of Texas
was annexed to the United States of America, becoming the 28th U.S.
state. Border disputes between the new state and Mexico, which had never
recognized Texas independence and still considered the area a renegade Mexican state, led to the Mexican–American War (1846–1848).
I hope this helps!
Good day to you.

I also struggled with this question and I'm not 100% sure about my answer, but it's better than no answer. I used the little scale thing on the bottom right corner of the map. And I found out that by sea it was around 700 miles. And by land, I got around 350, but I rounded up to 400. Hopefully I was able to help... this stuff can be hard. I hate DBQ packets, but you gotta do your best.
Have a wonderful day and good luck in history :-)

Martin Luther King Jr. was a famous civil rights activist in America during the 1950's and 1960's. Before becoming an American icon, King was a baptist minister at a small church. However, he began to gain national prominence as he aligned himself with national organizations such as the NAACP. Martin Luther King Jr. uses his personal experiences and beliefs in order to craft this speech about what he hopes to see in American society one day. This speech revolves around the central message that one day African-Americans will not be judged by their race, but rather their actions/characteristics.
