The border argument before the Mexican-American war was over which river divided Mexico from Texas. The Americans claimed that it was the Colorado River, but that was not the case. The Americans crossed into Mexico and were fired upon. America then declared war, this resulted in the Mexican-American war which was won by America and as a result took much more land.
