Mexico lost large amounts of land to the United States through the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, which followed the Mexican-American War. Mexico ceded territories that now make up present-day states like California, Arizona, New Mexico, and parts of Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming to the United States.
