abstract
  • In the United States, the war was a partisan issue, supported by most Democrats and opposed by most Whigs, with popular belief in the Manifest Destiny of the United States ultimately translating into public support for the war. In Mexico, the war was considered a matter of national pride. The most important consequence of the war was the Mexican Cession, in which the Mexican territories of California and New Mexico, as well as areas which later became Nevada, Arizona, and Colorado, were ceded to the United States. In Mexico, the enormous loss of territory which resulted from the war encouraged the central government to enact policies to colonize its now-northernmost territories such as Baja California, Sonora, and Chihuahua, as a hedge against further losses.
