Question

Which statement accurately identifies a political problem created for the U.S. For the acquisition of Mexican territory, including TEXAS?

Answer 1

Answer:

The conflict started on the claim of Nueces River

Explanation:

In simple words, It stemmed from the annexation of the Republic of Texas by the U.S. in 1845 and from a dispute over whether Texas ended at the Nueces River (the Mexican claim) or the Rio Grande (the U.S. claim).

The conflict, which was repeatedly won by US forces, resulted in the US acquiring upwards of 500,000 sq kilometers of Mexican land extension of time from the Rio Grande to something like the Pacific Ocean.
