As far as US and Britain over the Oregon Boundary, President Polk wanted the land and figured that Britain was not willing to fight over it. Britain gave the US almost everything it wanted. No troops were needed but both sides did have some ships.
With Mexico, the US sent a full scale invading army and took what it wanted. Later with the Gasden Purchase it took some more but this time it paid for it.

∙ 12y agoThe US had defeated Mexico in a war that was sparked by conflicting border claims and occupied Mexico City -- their capital. It essentially dictated the terms under which the US acquired the Southwest. They actually paid Mexico for the land though. The negotiations between Britain and US ended up resolving the conflicting claims by establishing terms of earlier treaties to extend all the way to the Pacific Ocean (with a few exceptions) and there was no money exchanged in the process. The US and Britain also did not end up at war over this issue.
