A lot of Mexicans still regard those South Western US states the USA "purchased at the point of a gun" in 1848 as Mexican territory. The deal was that Mexico ceded the territory USA wanted or the USA would annex the whole of Mexico. So the Yanks gave them $15 million and forced them to sign the contract just to make it all legal and above board
