Best Answer

The entry of Texas into the Union brought US forces face to face with Mexico. The US accused Mexico with territorial incursions, providing the US with a pretext for the Mexican War of 1846- 48. The war ended when US General Winfield Scott captured Mexico City. The ensuing peace treaty called for Mexico to renounce all claims to Texas and Mexico had to cede to the US California and vast areas in what is now the southwest of the US. States such as New Mexico and Arizona were once part of Mexico, however the peace treaty gave that all to the US.
