From the 1840s to 1853, the boundaries of the US mainland were shaped primarily through territorial expansion driven by the ideology of Manifest Destiny. The annexation of Texas in 1845 led to the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), resulting in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ceded a vast portion of Mexico's northern territories to the US, including present-day California, Arizona, New Mexico, and parts of Colorado, Utah, and Nevada. Additionally, the Gadsden Purchase in 1853 further defined the southern boundary by acquiring land from Mexico for a southern transcontinental railroad. These actions significantly expanded the US territory, solidifying its continental boundaries.
