The Persian Wars began when Athens and Persia fought over control of Ionia. This struggle between both nations to gain control over Ionia eventually led to a full-scale war between the small city-state of Athens and the Persian empire.
What supports this passage is that Texas and California were under control by Mexico until the land was fought for. That is why America couldn't annex it.
The Battle of the Little Bighorn, fought on June 25, 1876,
near the Little Bighorn River in Montana Territory, pitted federal
troops led by Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer (1839-76)
against a band of Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne warriors. Tensions between
the two groups had been rising since the discovery of gold on Native
American lands. When a number of tribes missed a federal deadline to
move to reservations, the U.S. Army, including Custer and his 7th
Calvary, was dispatched to confront them. Custer was unaware of the
number of Indians fighting under the command of Sitting Bull (c.1831-90)
at Little Bighorn, and his forces were outnumbered and quickly
overwhelmed in what became known as Custer’s Last Stand.
