What were two effects of the Mexican Cession?

The United States benefited from the Mexican Cession by gaining ground back. The land they gained became Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and California.


How much did the US pay for the Mexican Cession?

The United States had originally offered $30 million for the Mexican Cession. But Mexico refused. That angered the Americans. When the American army crossed the Nueces River, the Mexican army shot at the American army. That started the Mexican War. After the Mexican War, they signed the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. The treaty said that the Mexico had to cede the Mexican Cession and the United States had to give Mexico $15 million.


What future states were part of the Mexican cession?

California and New Mexico


What was the Mexican cession about?

The "Mexican Cession" was the vast area of land constituting most of the present Southwest United States, from California eastward to New Mexico. The lands were ceded to the US in 1848 under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo that ended the Mexican-American War (1846-1848). The cession amounted to more than 1/3 of the total area of pre-war Mexico, including all or part of the current US states of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico. The US settlement to Mexico totalled $18.5 million. Five years later, the US purchased a much smaller disputed border area for $10 million in the Gadsden Purchase.
