Answer 1

Answer:

Border differences pictured on the attached maps are the number of resources present in the seperate regions. Take for instance, the Oregon Territory possessed few resources, mainly few gold. Little south reflects the Mexican Cession with abundant of resources such as abundant gold, with coal and a bit of oil.

We can infer the presence of certain differences between the borders of the varying regions in the maps which are the Oregon Territory 1846, Mexican Cession 1848, Gadsden Purchase 1853, Disputed Texas Territory 1848, and Lonestar Republic 1845.

It's worthy to note that Britiain and the U.S. made claims to the Oregon territory but in order to avoid war the then president, James Polk agreed to take the boundary at the 49th parallel. When Mexico had no ability to continue in the war with the U.S., Mexico accepted the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo prompting the creation of a huge amount of land. It was named the land Mexican Cession.
