Question

The annexation of Texas to the United States eventually led to which of the following?

A) the Civil War

B) the French and Indian War

C) the Mexican War

D) the Spanish Armada

Answer 1

In the end, Texas was admitted to the United States a slave state. The annexation of Texas contributed to the coming of the Mexican-American War (1846-1848). The conflict started, in part, over a disagreement about which river was Mexico's true northern border: the Nueces or the Rio Grande.
