What events caused the mexican war?



    

Chauncey Q. Buttercup
Which Mexican War?


Tin Can Sailor
It is debated what caused the war. From the refernced site.

"As with all major events, historical interpretations concerning the causes of the Mexican War vary. Simply stated, a dictatorial government in Mexico began the war because of the U.S. annexation (1845) of Texas, which Mexico continued to claim despite the establishment of the independent republic of Texas 10 years before. Some historians have argued, however, that the United States provoked the war by annexing Texas and, more deliberately, by stationing an army at the mouth of the Rio Grande. Another, related, interpretation maintains that the administration of U.S. President James K. Polk forced Mexico to war in order to seize California and the Southwest. A minority believes the war arose simply out of Mexico's failure to pay claims for losses sustained by U.S. citizens during the Mexican War of Independence.".
