Analysis of The Mexican Civil War

Prior to independence, many Mexican people cultivated livestock on the Rio Grande river due to the Mexican Civil War. The US military urgently needed crops such as raw meat and corn, so the purpose of this trip was to reduce profits. This plan will bring a different style of illegal intuition (Carnes 79). As a result, by 1870, most border areas were occupied by Mexican and Mexican Americans (Matthews 61). But when Anglos became the ruler of most cities, freedom became shorter.

The origin of the American Civil War was the result of another war 15 years ago: Mexico - the American War. The question of whether slavery could be applied to the former Mexican territory of 700,000 square miles acquired by the United States in 1848 caused the Americans to be biased and caused political debate in the next decade. In the House of Representatives, Northern Parliament members advertised Wilmot Proviso and stated that slavery should be eliminated in all areas victorious from Mexico. In the Senate, Southern Power broke this condition. Senator John C. Calhoun of South Carolina proposed a series of resolutions confirming that the slave owner has a constitutional right to bring slave property to the territory of the US they want.

Beginning with the Mexican war, Americans discussed over the next 15 years whether Americans would cause civil war and extend slavery to new western regions. Later names known in this war - Grant, George McClellan, Robert Lee etc - met at the West Point and fought in Mexico, but eventually appeared opposite the civil war. As South Carolina Senator John C. Calhoun said at that time, "Mexico is our forbidden fruit."

Ulysses S. Grant was not as famous as Robert E. Lee at the beginning of the Civil War, but proved equally worthy during the war. Grant is a graduate of West Point and he has a good record in the Mexican war. However, when a civil war broke out, Grant was a civilian. He works at a brothers' leather shop in Illinois. He regarded himself a loser "locked in the mud" losing spirit at the age of 40. When he tried to reenter the army in 1861, he had to apply for a job. Finally he became a colonel
