Answer:The Mexican–American War,[a] also known in the United States as the Mexican War and in Mexico as the Intervención Estadounidense en México (United States intervention in Mexico),[b] was an armed conflict between the United States and Mexico from 1846 to 1848. It followed in the wake of the 1845 U.S. annexation of Texas, which was not formally recognized by the Mexican government, who disputed the Treaties of Velasco signed by Mexican caudillo President/General Antonio López de Santa Anna after the Texas Revolution a decade earlier. In 1845, newly elected U.S. President James K. Polk, who saw the annexation of Texas as the first step towards a further expansion of the United States,[5] sent troops to the disputed area and a diplomatic mission to Mexico. After Mexican forces attacked U.S. forces, the United States Congress declared war.
U.S. forces quickly occupied the regional capital of Santa Fe de Nuevo México along the upper Rio Grande and the Pacific coast province of Alta California, and then moved south. Meanwhile, the Pacific Squadron of the U.S. Navy blockaded the Pacific coast farther south in lower Baja California Territory. The U.S. Army under Major General Winfield Scott eventually captured Mexico City through stiff resistance, having marched west from the port of Veracruz on the Gulf Coast, where the U.S. staged its first ever major amphibious landing.
The 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, forced onto the remnant Mexican government, ended the war and enforced the Mexican Cession of the northern territories of Alta California and Santa Fe de Nuevo México to the United States. The U.S. agreed to pay $15 million compensation for the physical damage of the war and assumed $3.25 million of debt already owed earlier by the Mexican government to U.S. citizens. Mexico acknowledged the loss of what became the State of Texas and accepted the Rio Grande as its northern border with the United States.
The victory and territorial expansion Polk envisioned[6] inspired great patriotism in the United States, but the war and treaty drew some criticism in the U.S. for their casualties, monetary cost, and heavy-handedness,[7][8] particularly early on. The question of how to treat the new acquisitions also intensified the debate over slavery. Mexico's worsened domestic turmoil and losses of life, territory and national prestige left it in what prominent Mexicans called a "state of degradation and ruin".[9]
The answer is d. Father Massanet
Answer:
They had been building up their strength and had fresh new troops
Explanation:
The United States was bordering on if they wanted to join the war against the central powers( Germany, Austria-Hungary, Ottoman Empire, and Bulgaria) or if they should just sit it out. The United States was selling supplies to the allies on the western front of the war, and after Russia capitulated, the allies(United Kingdom, Belgium, Serbia, formerly Russia, and France) desperately needed these supplies, the Germans did not like that the US was selling supplies to the allies, so King Wilhelm II sent a telegram to Mexico saying that if they attacked the US, they would benefit from it via Germany. Luckily, the British intercepted this telegram and showed it to the United States president at that time, Woodrow Wilson, which was the final straw for America. As I stated earlier, America was selling supplies to the allies in Europe, and their economy was booming because of it. What this means is that by the time of the United States entry in the war, they had buffed up their military and had fresh, eager troops to send to Europe. When Germany found out about this, they knew if they did not do something soon, they would be defeated, and so they made several large offensives in France, most of which were successful, but at the same time they were draining their resources while the allies got better at defending against them. With fresh American troops in the fight, the Germans were pushed back and they capitulated on November 11th, 1918, Germany was the last country to capitulate, following Autria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire.
