Some of them include:

  • Mexican-American War (1846-1848) - Half the Mexican territory was lost to American forces, including the whole of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, as well as parts of Wyoming, Colorado, Oklahoma and Kansas.
  • Second Franco-Mexican War (1862-1867) - After the Cinco de Mayo or Battle of Puebla (May 5th), a high degree of nationalism began to appear throughout Mexicans that has lasted to this day.
  • US Occupation of Veracruz (1914) - Most of the relations between the US and Mexico throughout the 20th century were shaped due to this blunder; in fact, had it not been for the diplomatic intervention from Argentina, Brazil and Chile, Mexico and the United States would had declared war against each other.
