Fun fact: Abraham Lincoln and Grant were against War against Mexico
"and to this day, regard the war which resulted as one of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation." ~ Ulysses S. Grant (Comment about the US invasion of Mexico).
And Grant also quoted this: the Civil War was divine punishment for U.S. aggression against Mexico.
Lincoln got voted out of Congress after a single term due to his opposition. He also got the derisive nickname "Spotty Lincoln," as a result of challenging James Polk to point to the exact spot where hr claimed American blood had been shed.
Have to disagree with lincoln here, im glad the southwest is ours
@@rell0223 No one will argue that it wasn't a good move for the US, but that doesn't make it morally right or defensible; that's why Lincoln, Clay, and many others opposed it. Polk basically instigated a fight where there wasn't one, which got a lot of people killed that had no actual reason to be fighting one another aside from conquest.
@@rell0223
I'm Mexican, and I can guarantee you people over here ain't so glad that you guys have those states.
Nah, in reality no one cares about what happened 200 years ago lol.
FUN FACT: During this war, 2 famous generals by the name of "Ulysses S Grant" and "Robert E Lee", famous for there insane rivalry within the American Civil war would fight for the nation as one within the war!
So would all the veteran Confederate and Union generals?
Exactly, also both general were horribly shocked when they fought the war at the point they believed the civil war was a punishment to America
Their rivalry was professional not personal. After the war, there was no vengeance because both sides saw each other as family.
Funfact: This is not about generals, is about attacking a country who become independent in few years, and division issues 😂
Didn't they like die
1846
The United States was a stable nation that had become independent from the United Kingdom decades ago, Mexico had just become independent from Spain with 1 million deaths and a civil war.
Population: US 20 million, Mexico 7 million
In the war the Mexican army was poorly armed, in debt and divided, less than half of the Mexican states participated in the defense of the nation.
The US was in unrest also they were about to go into a full blown civil war
Was 1 sided. Mexico has always been divided politically and unstable unfortunately.
The funny thing is that Mexico actually had a larger population than the United States in 1800 (6.2 million vs 5.3 million), yet by 1846 the American population was almost triple the Mexican population.

Oh, so that's why most Californian cities are named Spanish like San Francisco.
In fact Mexico actually WON several battles on the west coast.
Those names were given by the Spanish conquistadors during the Viceroyalty of New Spain, not by the modern-day Mexicans.
@@ricardodumas9161 Nueva España era literalmente Mexico, habían muy pocos españoles.
You're probably going to laugh but in fact when California was part of Mexico San Francisco used to be called Yerba Buena 😅
the reason are spanish not mexican in the geographical part of Mexico call "Mesoamerica" the name of streets and boroughs are in native American language. "Nahuatl"
The ratio of soldiers between usa and mexico shows how terrible mexico’s army was
Army is to have indigenous people forcibly recruited without any firearm? And in a country in an open civil war? USA doesn't deserve any credit
@@AnahuacMeshikoWithout Firearms? The Mexican military was not a ragtag militia like you are making it sound like. They had thousands of professional, disciplined, drilled soldiers with the most modern weaponry at the time. They had fantastic professional calvary, which did a lot of damage to the Americans. The Mexicans were led by Santa Anna a incompetent politician, and even more incompetent general. The man had a messiah complex. If Mexico had better leadership the Americans would of been defeated most likely.
@@Karl-cs2jt Mexico did not need leadership, the only time the army retreated to Mexico City to suppress a rebellion, and those experienced were only one, modern team? Modern equipment? Just a couple of French cannons shooting steel balls
@@AnahuacMeshikoMexico had plenty of cannons they just deployed them in a foolish way. They would set up cannon emplacements, set up the cannon in one spot on the battlefield and leave it there. Where it would get destroyed by counter battery fire. The Americans were employing rolling artillery on the battlefield. The Americans would chain their cannons to wagons pulled by horses. The cannon would setup fire a few shots and then flee to another position to fire from. So you couldn't destroy them with counter battery fire. Again incompetent leadership on the battlefield has a catastrophic effect on the Mexicans ability to wage war. Santa Anna was a terrible general at the end of the day.
@@AnahuacMeshiko A simple bit of research shows Mexico had over 500 cannons at the start of the war, including mortars, 6 pounders, 12 pounders etc. They were at a disadvantage when it comes to fire power. The Americans had more cannons. But the crucial difference was in how they employed them. The Mexicans would employ their cannons on the battlefield and leave it in one place, where it would get destroyed by counter battery fire. The Americans employed a new tactic called rolling artillery. Where they harnessed their cannons to horses, The cannon would deploy without wasting time to be unharnessed, it would fire a few shots and then the horse drawn cannon would gallop really fast to a new location and fire 2 or 3 shots never staying in place. It was very difficult to destroy them with counter battery fire. The Mexican artillery was picked off one by one on the battlefield. Again poor generalship by Santa Anna. The guy was a terrible tactician and strategist. If the Mexicans were lead by a great general they would of won or fought the war to a draw.
I myself am Mexican and it’s kinda sad to see my country lose half of it’s territory but it’s not like I was alive to see this war so why being mad, the time passes and time goes by.
To be fair if those territories were still Mexican they would have been huge hotspots for cartels, maybe their better of American but hey at least there are still Mexicans in southern united states only mix with other ethnicities
Heck America could’ve annex the entirety of Mexico but the racists didn’t allow that
@@Silvergalaxy7383not gonna lie they would probably be 😅
Noticed the Yucatan was independent then, good job for detail!
(FYI the Yucatan tried to become a USA state at the time, failed by a couple votes in US senate.)
Also most the territory taken by the USA was pretty empty, and the the territories had a history of rebelling against the Mexican central gov't. (Calif 3-4 times, New Mexico 2x, Rio Grande 1x)
@@tommy-er6hh indeed my friend the state of Yucatan has been by far the most rebellous state, trying to gain independence 3 times, only two of them being achieved before being re-incorpored to Mexico. And by the way if you still don’t believe i am Mexican: ñ
This really lets you know how low-intensity this war was, so little troops and casualties for such a huge territory exchange. Meanwhile in European wars tens of thousands died to move the front line from a standstill, here the front line moved half a country away with like a few hundred casualties on both sides. It's almost like there was no fighting at all, just troops moving forwards or backwards.
Those huge lands were almost empty, that’s why Mexico could not keep them. A paper may say they are yours, but if you don’t have a whole bunch of your people settled there, the lands are for those that take them.
@@SheilawiszThey weren’t “almost empty.” It was full of Native American tribes.
@@olympia5758 For territories of that size, Native American population was very low. It’s not like they had entire cities already settled. Also, by the 1840s their numbers had already been affected by European diseases and other factors.
@@olympia5758so almost empty the native tribes where very small for the vast amounts of land they had and still managed to kill eachother over said land, honestly the natives where more brutal than the colonist in their killing of eachother
@@havoc989 Considering that Native Americans are tiny minority in their own homelands and are almost extinct, I'd say the Europeans were far more brutal. Tribal violence doesn't compare to the almost extinction of an entire race of people.
if the US wanted to at the time, could they have taken mexico entirely? or would that make things worse then what they are today
No
They could have most definetely and actually planned on doing so. But due to the actions of a diplomat, the deal we see today happened and Mexico kept its current borders.
@society463Mexicans are 90% descendants of Europeans, your Europe only includes the barbarians of the north
@@BRUH-nw9hhnot true only radical southerners wanted to take all of Mexico, the idea of taking all of that extremely populated land was very unpopular at the time.
They wanted to, but as usual, the north was afraid of the south gaining more power due to the Mason-Dixon line.

Fue una gran derrota nuestro ejército no era un ejército profesional sino sólo indígenas reclutados por la fuerza, el país estaba endeudado después de la guerra de independencia y había muy pocos generales con formación sin olvidar que muchas de las tropas no tenían pistola solo machete o armas cuerpo a cuerpo
Te faltó que estábamos técnicamente en guerra civil
bueno no es del todo cierto el ejercito de mexico si era profesional pero el ejercito de estados unidos ya era una potencia regional en especial por la tecnologia mientras mexico usaba cañones franceses que tiraban bolas de hierro los gringos usaron un cañon especialmente fabricado para lucha en el desierto que ya lanzaba cargas explosivas sin contar el dominio absoluto en los mares por parte de eua
Bueno ese fue el plan de EEUU cuando financió las guerras de independencia contra España, acabar con cualquier tipo de cohesión en latinoamerica, mermar cualquier capacidad militar, y a la larga aprovechar esto para hacerse con el control no solo de más territorio, si no económico, ya que antes de las guerras de independencia México era económicamente muy superior a EEUU, después de la independecia cayó en picado.
Yep sorry for that Mexico
@@huilan_smirnaherekdary si no me equivoco los estadounidenses tenían munición metralla la cuál al momento de impactar se dispersaban muchos restos como si fueran granadas
The casualties are sometimes fast and sometimes slow
Because wars before 20th century were without actual frontline. Soldiers didn't die everyday like in a modern warfare. Only when 2 armies meeting and killing each other and then retreat for regroup or continued to move towards the city for example

Mexican American war(1846-1848)
(Result):(American Victory)
We should also remember that thousands more of American troops died from infected wounds and other diseases. Those returning home after the war were often broken men, mentally affected and many with missing limbs. The Mexican war was not as easy as it is sometimes portrayed.
I assume the same would be true for the other side
Yeah, was even harder for mexico, mexico still used back then the ''brown bess musket'' an almost 100 years old musket, capable of doing 1 or 2 shots per minute, while the american springfield musket was capable of doing almost 15 shots per minute!

The chief American reason for the Mexican War was the expansion of slavery. The US, in the 1840's, was dominated by the pro-slavery Democratic Party. The anti-slavery expansion party, the Whigs, were in disarray, and it would be not be until 1860 that the new Republican Party would unite all the anti-slavery factions.
The US annexed the Republic of Texas in Dec 1845. Using a border dispute as a pretext, the war began in April 1846. As others have pointed out the Spanish language settlements in New Mexico and California were established in the 1600's and 1700's when the area was controlled by Spain and long before Mexican independence. The US wanted to expand through the southwest and to California (at the same time American settlers were moving into Oregon and present day Washington State). Because Mexico did not colonize and develope the territories north and west of the Rio Grande, the area was sparsely populated. The exception was New Mexico which maintained its Spanish culture and language (the only bi-lingual state) despite Anglo incursions in the 19th century.
As for the war itself, it was Scott's successful landing at Vera Cruz and then overland march to Mexico City which forced a 2 front war on the ovewhelmed Mexican Army and unstable Mexican Government.
What I don't understand is how both at 0:18 and 0:35 the US simply travelled around Mexican forces and suddenly captured that entire area like it's tetris or something
Isn't it a Tetris video?
Well, when an area is encircled by an enemy force, all highways and roads (assuming there are any) are blocked off from the outside. This allows for a swift takeover of said area, resulting in an encirclement movement. This was most famously utilized during WW2, the German Blitzkrieg.

Imagine attacking a country who barely become independent , broken, with no resources, and civil wars. It was a dirty war, basically a steal.
It was a war of aggression and imperialism, the US was never above that, look at Puerto Rico.
They promised us freedom from Spain and instead took over the entire island with no regard for the population.
Then they used us for slave labor in sugar mills and violently stomped out calls for independence.
In the end they spun the nationalists as "commies' and "no better than Cuban revolutionaries."
They won.
Yeah,it was.and it happened because Mexico got too brave to get Texas. Too reckless I suppose here
@@TheAnonymousKnightOfJusticeToo brave? Texas was full of American Inmigrants
Texas was part of Mexico, the us settled there and then took it basically
And Mexico overthrew the Spanish, who took the place from the central Americans, who fought amongst themselves. Brutally.
Round and round we go.
So at 1 time all that in the left was originally Mexicos😳
In fact, it was the territory of New Spain and belonged to the Spanish Empire. Later, Spain got into a lot of trouble with practically all of Latin America and Europe, so Spain practically handed over its its sovereignty to Mexico, As soon as the Mexican indigenous people had their territory, the US, knowing that without Spain Mexico was nothing, invaded them immediately and won easily, That territory was originally conquered by Spain, not Mexico.

En realidad no, también Estados Unidos había ganado su independencia, la diferencia entre uno y otro, es que Estados Unidos tuvo cohesión y en teoría estuvieron de acuerdo en su mayoría, por lo que estaban más unidos. México por su parte tenía un conflicto, porque las élites no tenían la misma idea que los indígenas u otros sectores, México NO quería independizarse de España, lo hicieron porque lo vieron más conveniente al ver que España tenía sus reformas liberales. Durante la invasión prácticamente, era un pueblo y gobierno desarticulado fácil de someter... Y ese siempre ha sido el problema con México, que la élite y la clase común no tienen el mismo ideal, y por eso, es fácil desarticularlo.

Winfield Scott ,considered one of the greatest generals who ever lived.
The map is not entirely accurate. Mexico NEVER recognized the independence of Texas. Therefore Texas should have been included as part of the Mexican-American War.
Who said they did? Texas had already been annexed by the US by this point.
shut up, this war is over and finalized, and it's best that way; throw it under the rug, q paso aqui, nada, move on, time to go back to home depot lol
They may not have recognized it, but they sure lost the war and did not have control of Texas after the Battle of San Jacinto of 1836.
That doesn't matter. Texas became a state before the war and was independent for years before it (and was recognized as such by the US, which matters much more than mexicos recognition)
The map is wrong, you have forgotten to say that there were separatist revolts within the country and that only a few Mexican states participated in the war, the rest refused to lend their support to the war
One of the inconvenient truths that Mexican fascists love to ignore.
Still the mexican outnumbered them
Hablo desde el punto de vista perdedor. En aquel entonces México sufria una inestabilidad enorme, recien habia salido de una ardua guerra de independencia que acabo con toda su economia y estabilidad politica, y provoco un conflicto interminable entre centralistas (apoyaban un sistema unitario como UK o Francia) y federalistas (apoyaban un sistema federal como el de USA), esto hizo que la mayoria de los estados de México no mandaron sus ejercitos a la guerra porque no estaban deacuerdo con el sistema centralista y estaban en "rebeldia" y hasta varios estados intentaron independizarce como Texas.
México tenia inferioridad tecnologica y USA tenia mejores soldados, y aparte México tuvo un desventaja enorme por su desorganizacion y crisis economica. Por qué creen que USA se espero a invadir a México hasta despues de su independencia? Si México hubiera tenido las condiciones que tenia antes de su indepencia, el resultado de la guerra hubiera sido muy diferente.

Forgotten yet very important war; easily the last major war related to the events of 1776-1825. The configuration of modern America(s). Since this war, Latin America stops at Rio Grande, New Mexico being a buffer state in all but name.
British son vs Spanish son😂
0:10 Mexico literally give up most of their land to the USA.
Thanx 4 the video. Even it's too fast 4 me 😢😅
You got to remember that new British Americans and new Mexican Americans fought against the Mexican government in this war, because they where tired of their oppression.

Estos gringitos piensan que será fácil en estos tiempos
It would be, America has the top 2 most powerful Air Forces in the planet but come on. We would never go to war
the only time we would be fighting on mexican soil likely along side mexican government and mexican troops to combat the cartels
I would not be easy for mexicans either

Wait you're telling me we could have taken over Mexico 200 years ago and we didn't because we became too lazy. Wow we could have been a huge empire.
It was an option, but basically the US didn’t annex all of Mexico because of the cultural and racial differences between the Americans and Mexicans.
politicians did not want to share land heavily populated by non white people and they knew it would be met with resistance
Just imagine they went to war today
This would be a hellhole
Would be similar to the Ukraine-Russia War.
@@Hect568Mexico would not have the support of the whole world like Ukraine, and yet Ukraine is losing
@AnahuacMeshiko that's what you think, kid. Even from the inside of U.S. México would still have any kind of support.

México tenia una economía muy mala y su politica ni se diga, por eso su ejército no pudo contra la intervención estadounidense. (También mexico no tenía mucho armamento)
make the war of 1812 in google earth
Es algo mal la guerra ,en esa época todo el territorio que se quedaron los americanos estaba despoblado,solo EN TEXAS,había un fuerte con 2000 tropas en San Antonio ,lo demás eran misiones y guarniciones tratando de controlar a los pueblos originarios y un solo camino como tal el real camino a Santa fe,se perdió por falta de municiones,división internas y que el propio Santana fue hecho prisionero,se preguntan porque no se quedaron con todo recordemos que los Mexicanos son Católicos hablaban español en ese tiempo muchos no y el gobierno de ese tiempo pensó que sería muy costoso mantener destacamentos para tener controlado al país,ante está guerra muchos de los soldados de USA ,desertaron y pasaron al bando Mexicano al ver que era desigual de guerra , como el batallón de San Patricio irlandés mismo que fue hecho prisionero para luego fusilarlos por traidores,hoy son héroes para MÉXICO E IRLANDA
America was extremely generous in how much land they gave back to Mexico after that ass whooping.
No
@@asfasw Yes. They actually gave quite a bit of conquered territory back.
@OGFrylock It was the negotiator on their side he knew this war was immoral unjustified and built on lies
Nothing changed it seems in the usa ever since but many people from usa not blind knew this May God bless them
@@asfasw Mexico got her ass kicked. Now Mexicans fight tooth and nail to live in gringolandia, it's a better country with a higher quality of life. Mexicanos want to live with Gringos.
@@OGFrylock gringo, el único motivo por el que México perdió la guerra fue por la corrupción y la falta de apoyo interno a la guerra ¿En serio piensas que Estados Unidos hubiera podido ganarle a México sin que este estuviera débil? Aprende algo de historia.
We were kinda on the road to a North American Empire back in the day, weren't we.
Although America Invaded Us, I Still Respect Them. 🇲🇽🤝🇺🇸
I mean Mexico invaded Texas first so....
@@braydenengel3693Yes, of course, having a bunch of illegal foreigners proclaim the succession of part of your territory is not an attack, right? child
Fun Fact: México is more "América" than the United States. We should all Hispanoamericanos state that fact.
Fun Fact 2: Baja California. Why not simply California. And Los Angeles is Alta California. Why? Because the anglo sphere is always playing with marketing. And we're submissive enough to accept it.
Fun Fact 3: anglos are always trying to divide Hispanoamérica. Same language. Same culture. Same religion. Divided in 20 countries. Why? They have the same thing in a single country. Makes you think.
1. How is that the case?
2. I don’t know what to tell you there. Quit being submissive, I guess.
3. Latin American being divided has nothing to do with the US. They were divided, before the US was even a strong enough country to influence Latin America like that
The name "Baja California" comes from the times of the Viceroyalty of New Spain. It has nothing to do with the fact that Alta California was lost to the US (which by the way, covered more land than the current day state of California).

Essa foi uma das guerras mais humilhantes que eu já conheci
No conoces mucho de historia al parecer
fue una guerra sucia, humillante para ellos atacar a un pais recien independizado e inestable a base de provocacion a falsa bandera. Hasta algunos presidentes de USA de esa epoca se sintieron avergonzados
1846:
-USA 20 millones de habitantes, independizado hace décadas, estabilidad política y el mejor ejercito de américa.
-México: 6 millones de habitantes, destrozado por la reciente guerra de independencia mas grande de todo américa con movimientos separatistas.
Con todo eso no pudieron con la invasión al norte, ganaron por la entrada poco defendida en Veracruz mediante la armada.
@@Daj3293 ¿Entrada de Veracruz poco defendida?
Amigo, literal el general Scott ordenó bombardear el puerto y así lo mantuvo por casi un mes, cuando se le pidió una tregua para evacuar a los civiles se el general estadounidense se negó y continuó el asedio (más de 1000 civiles veracruzanos murieron en ese asedio)

How did Mexico loose like half of its territory in a WEEK
I feel bad for the Mexicans
Because those territories weren’t properly controlled in the first place
@@Simpleexperiments741 they were conquered, it's nothing different from Mongols, Rome, Britain, France, Persians, ect conquering territory
It lost so much territory so quickly because the "Mexican governments" in the area technically betrayed their own country, since they allowed the rapid and unopposed passage of U.S. troops, most people in the north were unhappy with Mexico.
true because i think there was a rebellion or uprising that the Americans took advantage of the situation
There was never a unified front, that didn't appear until the advent of modern warfare.
The representation is misleading
The way you show the distribution of the armies is quite misleading.
The largest continuous army that Mexico had in terms of numbers was the contingent led by Santa Anna during the Battle of Buena Vista, consisting of around 20,000 men (although in the actual battle, less than 15,000 fought, as many were either relocated or deserted). There was never a kind of unified front where casualties accumulated in that way. Most of the casualties in action occurred in the major battles, occasional skirmishes in cities, and in the later stages through guerrilla warfare by civilian resistance.
You forgot to make all mexico blue. USA took over all of Mexico after going to the capital. They even had Mexico surrounded with their Naval Fleet around the coasts of mexico.
So now we know it was actually skill issue
