The border of the Viceroyalty of New Spain extended as far north as present-day Canada, encompassing territories that included much of what is now the southwestern United States. It reached into areas like Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California. The northernmost point was often considered to be around the region of modern-day California and the southern parts of the Rocky Mountains. The vast expanse reflected the early Spanish colonial ambitions in North America.
