Map of the Mexican Territories which the U.S.
Annexed in 1848 with the signing of
The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo
The map above reflects the northern Mexico territory which
the United States
annexed Feb 1848 (Texas was annexed earlier). Americans
of Hispanic heritage have
been in the western states from at least the early 1800s,
and are Native to the western
U.S at least from that time. Many Hispanics
have been in the region from at least 1848,
if not the 1500s, and many many Hispanics have
been in the western U.S. from the re-Colombian period (before the Europeans).
