The Mexican-American War was the studied historical event that influenced me the most. It started in the spring of 1846 when after unsolved territorial claims between U.S and Mexico, the countries started a military conflict. The first and the provocative step was made by the X.S XXXXXX, with XXXXXX from XXXXXXXXX James XXXX. They build a XXXX called XXXX Texas, on XXX XXXXX XX Rio Grande XXXXX.

XXX attack XXX the XXXXXXXX "XXXXX XXXXX" XXX it allowed XXX X.S to change its XXXXXXXX from a diplomatic XXX XXXXXXXX perspective to a XXXXXXXX XXX. By all means, the Mexican army XXX XXXX prepared XXX XXX XXX, XXXX obsolete XXXXXXXXX and poorly trained men. XXX force XXXXXXX was XXXXXXX in XXXXX XXX XXX XXXX XXX in XXXXX XXXXXX XXXXX XXX war XXXXXXX, the U.S occupied XXX XXXXXX and XXXXXXXXXX, XXXX called "Northern Territories".
