Did the US gain the Utah territory peacefully?

Yes, the United States gained the Utah Territory peacefully. Following the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo ceded a vast amount of territory from Mexico to the U.S., including present-day Utah. This acquisition was largely peaceful, as it was part of a negotiated settlement rather than a conflict over the territory itself. Subsequently, the Utah Territory was formally organized in 1850.

How did the US gain control of Texas California the American southwest and the Oregon territory?

The United States never had to fight a war to gain control of Texas and other southwest territories, such as the California territory. Texas was annexed in a time of peace in 1845 by the US; however, this provoked anger from the Mexican government which still did not recognize the independence of the Republic of Texas, and claimed it as still their own territory, albeit a "troublesome one." As a result of the US annexation of Texas, the Mexican-American War broke out.
