Is Baja part of Mexico or California or both?

The Baja California peninsula (meaning Lower California) is part of Mexico and has always been since Mexico's independence in 1821.Before becoming a state in 1953, Baja was known as the North Territory of Baja California. Right now it is conformed by two federal states: Baja California (Capital: Mexicali) and Baja California Sur(Capital: La Paz).Baja California is both the northernmost and westernmost state of Mexico.


How did Baja California Sur get its name?

After the Mexican-American War, the whole territories of California were split on Alta California (Upper California) which corresponds to the present-day US state of California, and Baja California (Lower California) which corresponds to the peninsula of the same name. It became the territory of Baja California for the following 80 years, until 1930 when the Mexican Congress decided to split up such territory in two: the North Territory of Baja California (Territorio Norte de Baja California) and South Territory of Baja California (Territorio Sur de Baja California), being divided by the 28th parallel.Years later in 1951, Mexican president Miguel Aleman Valdes announced that the North Territory of Baja California satisfied the conditions required by the Constitution to be admitted as a free and sovereign state: population and economic ability to survive without federal support. The new state was named as Estado Libre y Soberano de Baja California (English: Free and Sovereign State of Baja California).Finally, in 1974 Mexican President Luis Echeverria Alvarez pushed a bill for the South Territory of Baja California to be elevated to the category of state.


Which country is Baja California located in?

Baja California is a peninsula that extends along the Pacific coast south of the US state of California. It remained part of Mexico after the Mexican Cession of 1848 that gave most of the region (Alta California) to the US following the Mexican-American War. It consists of two Mexican states, Baja California (capital Mexicali) and Baja California Sur in the south (capital La Paz).Baja California is separated from the mainland by the Gulf of California (sometimes referred to as the Sea of Cortes). It includes the resort Cabo San Lucas at the tip of the peninsula, where it crosses the Tropic of Cancer.
