MORE INFO STATEHOOD:New Mexico was acquired by the
United States as a result of the controversial U.S.-Mexican war (1846-1848). On August 18, 1846, three months after the U.S. declaration of war with Mexico, U.S. General Stephen Kearny and his army marched into and took possession of Santa Fe and New Mexico. In 1848, the war with Mexico ended with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. Two years later, on September 9, 1850, the U.S. Congress passed an Organic Act, which created the Territory of New Mexico and authorized its civil government.
