California became a state before Nevada
Pah-Ute County Arizona, most of which was transferred to Nevada to become Clark County.
California and Nevada could be joined and become a state. Yes it is possible. Will it happen? No. Both now have two senators. If they joined they would lose two senators. They would lose power. That will not happen. California is now broke. If Nevada joined California the people of Nevada would need to help pay debts they had no part in creating. A number of California retirees receive much larger pensions than their equivalents in Nevada. The people of Nevada would not want to pay them.
Actually eight US states (either all or part) used to belong to Mexico. Texas was the only one to become independent, then to join the Union. Texas claimed parts of present-day New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado and Wyoming. The territory making up all or part of the following states were ceded to the USA by the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended the Mexican-American War in 1848: California, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming.

Nevada is a state you 'tards
Mexico gave up slightly more then half of its total land area including what would become the states of California, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico. It gave up other claims including claims to Texas and settled the Texas border at the Rio Grande.
Nevada was "Battle Born" during the US Civil War to defend against Confederate efforts to link up with southern California and to divide it into Free and Slave areas.
The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, also known as the Treaty of Peace, Friendship, Limits and Settlement between the United States of America and the Mexican Republic, ended the Mexican-American War. The United States gained the Rio Grande as a border for Texas, ownership of the state of California, along with ownership of a large area comprising roughly half of New Mexico, most of Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and parts of Wyoming and Colorado. More than 90% of the Mexicans in these areas chose to become US citizens.
