What conflicts did American settlers native Americans and Mexican Americans in Mexican cession experience?

Answer 1

There were two conflicts between Mexico and the United States:

• The Texas Revolution (1835-1836) between Mexico and Anglo-American settlers on the aforementioned territory when they tried to split-up.
• The Mexican-American War (1846-1848) when the US annexed Texas, thus prompting a violent reaction by Mexico.

A special mention is the Occupation of Veracruz (1914), when faulty intelligence reports prompted the attack and occupation of such Mexican port city for six months. It would be a laughable affair if not by the fact that several hundred people from Mexico and the United States died during the assault.

Answer 2

Plain and simple greed. Rich, white, old men wanted a United States that would span all of Northern America; from the Atlantic to the Pacific, no matter the cost. Also slave owners wanted to increase slave territories, and the Mexican northern territories were an excellent source of slaves (Native Americans) as well as prime land with abundant resources, such as California. This became a movement known as Manifest Destiny, and ultimately, led to the Texas Revolution (1835-1836) and the Mexican-American War (1846-1848).

Answer 3

The definition of the Texas-Mexico border. The Americans stated it was defined by the Rio Grande River, while the Mexicans believed it was the Nueces River. Skirmishes along the Nueces Strip between American and Mexican troops resulted in American blood shed. This was used by president Polk to start the Mexican-American War (1846-1848).
