In 1848, the United States acquired a significant amount of land through the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended the Mexican-American War. This treaty resulted in the U.S. gaining territories that would become the states of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and parts of Colorado and New Mexico. Additionally, the Gadsden Purchase in 1853 further expanded U.S. territory in present-day southern Arizona and New Mexico.
