The war—in which U.S. forces were consistently victorious—resulted in the United States’ acquisition of more than 500,000 square miles (1,300,000 square km) of Mexican territory extending westward from the Rio Grande to the Pacific Ocean. anthonyc15092 https://padlet.com/anthonyc15092/ly2ycq0wh2vw1snz/wish/1536103072 2021-05-18 15:24:22 UTC https://padlet.com/anthonyc15092/ly2ycq0wh2vw1snz/wish/1536103072 Invasion and war anthonyc15092 https://padlet.com/anthonyc15092/ly2ycq0wh2vw1snz/wish/1536121658 When war broke out, former Mexican president and general Antonio López de Santa Anna (the vanquisher of the Texan forces at the Alamo in 1836) contacted Polk. The U.S. president arranged for a ship to take Santa Anna from his exile in Cuba to Mexico for the purpose of working for peace. Instead of acting for peace, however, on his return, Santa Anna took charge of the Mexican forces.When war broke out, former Mexican president and general Antonio López de Santa Anna (the vanquisher of the Texan forces at the Alamo in 1836) contacted Polk.

But after a long delay in the formation of a new Mexican government capable of negotiations, Polk grew impatient and recalled Trist. Trist, however, disobeyed his instructions and on February 2, 1848, signed the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.]]> 2021-05-18 17:02:43 UTC https://padlet.com/anthonyc15092/ly2ycq0wh2vw1snz/wish/1536594089
