How the U.S. Stole Mexico 

It really be like that and in the end the lies come to truth but we still make things worst and yet call it a great success! Welcome to AMERICA 🇺🇸 a "free proud nation"

It’s not just the US tho every country makes movies like that

Lol the formation of almost all countries which have ever existed usually had some sort of war or foul play involved. You cannot be petty about what happened hundreds of years ago to create the country you’re sitting in right now. Bad things happen in the world, not everything can be rainbows and bunny rabbits.

I mean, Russia is kinda doing this in eastern ukraine right now. They’re moving troops towards the border which is usually a sign a war will ensue. However, Russia experts believe that Russia is trying to get Ukraine to fire the first shot so that Russia would have a “just” cause for war. This would also make it more difficult for NATO countries to then back Ukraine via military involvement, since it’d be viewed as joining the side which started the war. Even though you could argue Russia is trying to start a war without firing a shot. Point being every major superpower or regional power has done this at one time or another. Countries are run by either borderline narcissists or narcissists who want to make an impact on their society. And they’re willing to do a lot to succeed. Even so called “just leaders” are a bunch of narcissists. If you think you can lead over a million people/people should listen to you and trust you to do the right thing, then you’re not someone I’d trust. But, sadly, humans and primates are kinda messed up, it’s just we’re a lot smarter than chimps.

@@tornadochaser7226 It's important to learn about this and take it to heart because it is STILL HAPPENING.

Americans were afraid of all those brown skin Mexican men coming over and taking away their white american women. Once you go brown, you can't go back.

@Royal Bengal Tiger you act as if Mexico is any better. Mexico was also built on the murder and exploitation of other people

Usa is shite

@Royal Bengal Tiger Mexico is racist, starting with the Spanish/Indian conflicts and caste system. And before that tribe against tribe. Even today, Mexicans boast about their whiteness, others of their Indian blood. There would have been no African slaves if African merchants had not sold their own to other nations. Slavery in Africa was a booming business centuries ago. Racism in the United States is not what it was 150 years ago. Not all were slave owner's, in fact the nation went into the Civil War over freedom for slaves, segregation helped the Black to develop themselves to independence setting their own businesses, etc in their own communities, Civil Rights, and today they have every right under the law as any other American. In the US, any racism that still exists is politically motivated and racism works the other way around. Can't be that bad as immigrants of all colors are pouring into US borders.

There were many other reasons why the US didn't annexed all of Mexico. Racism wasn't the only reason. It wasn't even one of the main reasons. The US wasn't quite ready to control such a big territory. Everybody in Congress knew this and that's why they didn't annexed all Mexico.

That's why I always say that's mexico land...

@@neanam should I hate usa for that ?

I have never known "Americans" to be always chanting that. Making light of the border crisis is stupid and infantile

And they are always calling people invaders, when they are literally the invaders. 😂😂 such nasty people.

@@neanam*WAS* Mexico's land. Keep coping

The quote doesn’t even make sense, considering most Mexicans came to the US after the war.

Who ever made up that quote was historically challenged. It was actually Mexico who crossed the borders on inherent lands of the Navaho, Comanche, Caddo, Kiowa, Piaut , Shasta, Chumash, Pueblo and other northern tribes in today's USA. The Comanche and Kiowa constantly fought the Sonorans and Sinaloans. Fierce warrior tribes who were feared in those villages in today's northern Mexico who's lands were left in shreds by northern tribes.... Truth is Mexico had only been a nation for 25 years before the Mexican War and Mexico claimed its lands under its Estados Unidos Mexicanos constitution of 1824. Spain never acknowledged Mexican independence and Spains King refused to sign the Treaty of Cordova so Spain never treatied any lands over to Mexico. In fact under Mexico's first Apatzingan constitution, California, New Mexico which included Arizona, Texas were not Mexico. Today Mexico is what is left after the USA returned half of Mexico by the Treaty of GH. So "Mexico" since its beginning had been neither here or there. Until both the USA and Mexico negotiated a border. So that quote you mention is pretty ridiculous...

@@seanmacguire6898 the same with Americans still coming to Mexico don't you think?

@@snyr but karen doesn't know that because she is karen

Illegal yes, unless the immigration was processed lawfully for USA citizenship. Borders divide nations, since ancient times.

Yes just keep letting those engineers and scholars over the border without any checks

And the Mexicans stole it from the natives

In the first place, the lands were claimed by tribes for centuries, Texas was claimed by France, lands were Spains for over 250 years, Texas Republic. And Mexico for barely 25 years. In fact, Mexico became a country only 200 years ago in 1824. Mexico did not inherit Spains lands, there was never a Treaty from Spain who did not recognize independence or surrender New Spain. The attempted Treaty of Cordoba was never signed by Spains monarch. The USA conquered Mexico, and Mexicans migrated illegally to USAs borders after the Mexican War and signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. In fact it was the USA westward movement that incentivized Mexicans migration north. Before the USA, Mexicans had no need for Texas, New Mexico or California which was just an uninhabitable barren wilderness with unconquered Indians ready to attack anyone not of their tribe... Unless within USA borders legally and mass forced illegal entry, it is an invasion... It was Americans who governed, beautified and developed California and the SW.

​@@seanmacguire6898mexicans ARE the natives

@@hr-g4640 They’re the natives of central Mexico, at best, not the modern US southwest. Everything else is from being the successor to New Spain. Most Mexicans aren’t even full blooded and almost none practice any indigenous culture.

​@@seanmacguire6898"almost none practice indigenous culture" you are so wrong, and probably have a narrow view of what is "indigenous culture." Which let's clarify that there are different and diverse groups of indigenous, and is not just a big single community across US or Mexico, and every group and descendants have different practices and beliefs. The modern Mexican do practice "indigenous culture" is in our food, music, dances, holidays, stories, clothing, and even religion, etc.

Christian Bai The creator of this vid is an SJW commie. I dont feel bad about anything. If it makes anyone feel bad, then they are weak minded. Every people on this Earth has stolen land at some point. Im not ashamed of anything the US did.

Christian Bai bro this video had nothing to do with policy. It’s a historical video to try to undo some of the brainwashing that happens in American schools. The euro/ white centric view of history. I think every American should know the history of its nation. Also history has PROFOUND consequences on the present.

@refriaire you are wrong, the US did not take Philippines, they are an independent country. The US people are fighting for their rights too so don't blame the people here but the Evil Government Leaders.

Great comments. Looking back, the people who have faired worst are the native peoples. They have been completely run over, land stolen, whole tribes disappeared. Looking forward, are we as a human race getting better? We are but a spec in time. Great empires have risen and fallen. What will happen to the US, Russia, China?

@@gabrielteddy2588 nah, you you Just typing bullshit

Did the movie explain that California and all the SW were under Mexico's rule for only 25 years, known as the SW Mexican Period. That's about the extent of "was once Mexico"... There was no Mexico or Mexican before 1824. California, Texas and New Mexico got their names from Spain starting in 1550 to become territories of New Spain through Spains explorations by land and sea. "California" was a mythological tale in Spain extended to the New World. Texas was named after Louisiana Caddo tribes. California and New Mexico extended to Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Arizona lands all claimed by Spain. What are today NM, TX, CA were colonized by Spain. Towns like Santa Fe, Taos (Don Fernando), Albuquerque, Socorro, El Paso, San Antonio, Nachotiches, San Diego, San Francisco, Monte Rey were early Spanish Colonial settlements 1598-1770 of the Spanish Colonial Period of 250 years up to 1821. Nevada, Utah, Colorado were not colonized during the Spanish Period. The Amerindians were northern tribes as Shasta, Chumash, Mohave, Piaute, Shoshone, Ute, Pueblo, Comanche, Caddo, Kiowa, Navajo, Apache Pawnee and many more. Mexico/Mexican were late arrivals to the SW after 1824. It was Mexican officials who transplanted north after Mexican independence 1821-1848 Mexican Period. Generally Mexicans didn't migrate north until post Mexican War years approx 1880, after USA westward movement, and after the US government quelled the thousands of unconquered tribes in the SW, and placing in reservations. Mexicans established towns in CA, NM, TX border areas. Americans, settlEd in CA and NM 1821; and TX shortly after, with Mexican issued land grant settlements as Texas was vast unpopulated lands and Mexico needed settlers. Trains, the 1910 Mexican Revolution brought more Mexicans. Americans built the SW, Americans influenced the SW as well as Mexican and Chinese in California. Mexicans were deported in the 1950s. There were not a high percent of Mexicans in California until the turn of the 21st century with uncontrolled illegal migration. Mexicans are immigrants to the USA and do not share an indigenous tribal heritage to northern tribes who are not Mexican. And Mexicans ancestors are not rooted in California, New Mexico or Texas. No parts of the SW are ancestrally Mexico. I didn't see the Hollywood movie, but sure it didn't go into SW history. My guess is its an immigrants story...

Hollywood movie. That's all you need to know. No matter WHERE our southwest border would currently be, we'd have the same issues here in 2023. Even if everyone were sneaking into Oregon.

You're not recovering your lands. It's USA corrupt politicians open borders. Not only to Mexicans, but to people all over the world... The lands originally were claimed by Navaho, Apache, Comanche, Piaut, Kiowa, Caddo, Chumash, Shasta, Shoshone, Ute, Pueblo, Mohave plus many more northern tribes who spoke their own indigenous tongues. Cannot recover what was never yours...... The Spanish names came from Spain. These USA lands were part of New Spain. Which had nothing to do with Mexico except for 25 years.

Los españoles llegaron y quitaron todas las tierras a las personas indígenas. Por eso hablamos español. Esta tierra tampoco nos pertenece.

Not really, Hispanics are turning into Americans and even though they call themselves Mexicans-Americans. They more identify with America. And once a new generation of immigrant children are born. All they know will be America. Take it from me. I’m Puerto Rican descent but I solely identify America. Same as many other immigrant children

Claro así será!🙏

Solo falta que gobierne un mexicano y ojalá que haga bien las cosas en Texas

Wow, exactly like zionist

California was claimed and founded by Spain, Spaniards approx 1540. Colonized by Spain in 1770 and belonged to Spain for almost 275 years. Mexico claimed California for only 25 years, California not ancestrally Mexico. In fact Americans settled in California 1821 just about the same time Mexican government officials took over California from Spain. Many Americans migrated to California after the Mexican War with the US westward movement. Mexican and Chinese were also immigrating at this time. But it was the 1910 Mexican Revolution that attracted Mexicans to the north escaping Mexico's government instabilities. While Spain founded the first Spanish Colonial settlements to guard California against Russian claims in an isolated wilderness desert in northern New Spain, with a few years of Mexican intervention 1821-1846 during which Mexico quasi controlled California which was not part of Mexico's main; it was the United States who made modern California what it today.

@@Kat-fq4ei LOL. That's a good example of what the people on the tour said. California belonged to Spain, as the rest of the Mexican territory did. When MX got its independence, it included California. You said "Mexico claimed California for only 25 years" That's the kind of rhetoric that I find quite shocking.

​​@@damarindo Spain did not recognize Mexican independence and Spains King refused to sign the Treaty of Cordova. Spain did not Treaty any lands over to Mexico. Mexico claimed its lands on paper, under its 1824 Estados Unidos Mexicanos constitution. One may consider stolen as Mexico Treaty'd lands over to the USA describing a border, lands and water's. There was no such description of lands under any agreement when Mexico took Spains lands. Under Mexico's first Apatzingan constitution, California, New Mexico/Arizona and Texas were not Mexico. So Mexico's borders changed 4 times within fourty years; from no border as there was no Mexico, then the lands under Apatzingan constitution, then the 1824 constitutional border, and the 1848 border. All in all from later 1800s California had its share of immigrants; Americans, Mexicans, Chinese, Japanese and Philippines up to earlier 1900s. And California had been settled by Americans early on during the SW Mexican Period which started in 1821. Mexican soldiers were given Mexican land grants during this Period to encourage settlers, they were few as California was very distant, isolated wilderness and conditions were as uninhabitable as during the Spanish Period, very difficult to settle with dangerous unconquered raiding Indians. Americans were the most population and built Californias infrastructure. Bottom line is Mexicans were not ancestrally rooted in California, they were late arrivals in the 1800s as were Anglo Americans. European Spain was the claimant, settler and founder of early California. It was the USA government who subjugated the Indians..

@@Kat-fq4eiin those 25 yrs there were almost no Mexicans all were still novohispanos for the Viceroy of new Spain. But as always the Anglos didnt keep their promises to the novohispanos and kicked them out or sent them to reservations. As always Anglo supremacy reigns supreme where ever they go

i was in the texas public school system for a couple of years after immigrating from mexico. in 5th grade they “teach” you the history of texas, and if you’re lucky you get to go to the museum in austin in a big school field trip. the history in plain sight is wrong: the fight at the alamo is drawn out so students think that the settlers were brave and contagious, they never explained why they were there in the first place or how many native americans were murdered. quite frankly, it’s very bias and i was fortunate enough to have also been through the mexican school system to know what actually happened in the battle of the alamo and after.

Samantha Bajonero The Mexicans did the same to the native Americans? What are you talking about? Mexico is a rump state founded by Spanish settlers. Saying that the Mexicans were any better than the american settlers is just flat out wrong. The tejanos would regularly steal land from the natives (who in turn had stolen land from other natives centuries before)

I dunno man. America murder Mexicans, Mexicans murder the Spanish to break away. The Spanish murder the natives of the Americas, The Moores murdered the Spanish before that, the Iberians of Spain were murdered by the Romans, before them Cathagians, before them the Phoenicians, isn't all of history constant colonisation? Didn't the natives just as readily slaughter each other brutally, isn't that how they got the land?

Well actually if I’m not wrong there were two states...besides texas that would eventually leave Mexico, these states or regions both returned to Mexico, one was a region that later became Guatemala (Spain split the regions on the americas in weird ways), but the state always identified itself as Mexican so they left Guatemala and returned, the other was the republic of Yucatán in the south, 50-50 of population chos e either to return or wanted to be out of the republic, so they split into 3 states, and all of them returned to the Mexican republic. Aaand the were islands that were disputed with England, but I think England got those. For a summary, it was a pretty good video, since the full history would’ve taken hours to explain.

What this very left leaning creator fails to mention, is that President Polk was a Democrat (the one he labelled a "racist") and that President Lincoln was the first Republican president, you know, the guy who emancipated the slaves. Also, we were invited here for a reason - to create a buffer between Mexico and the absolute scourge of the Great Plains; the barbarous Comanches. Mexico didn't bother coming this far north to police the place properly. The Anglos were allowed to bring the slaves (not that, that was a good thing), and they were Mexican Citizens, called "Texians", not Americans. The Hispanic Texians were called Tejanos. The Tejanos and several Indian tribes ALL rose up and fought with us against Mexico, when they tried to disarm us. This was an internal Mexican Revolution, against it's own Mexican government, just 12 years after Mexico "stole" Mexico from Spain. That would be a great video, but I don't think it would be Anti-American enough for the obviously Marxist creator of this video, who is trying to re-write history, instead of completely explain it. One last thing, the last time I checked, Mexico was a sovereign nation. It wasn't stolen. They lost pieces of it, and Texas was for mismanagement.

Steven Hoskins Well...the first ones to abolish slavery and presented ideals for American union were the Republican Party...the Democratic Party...not so much, political views were very polarized. I wouldn’t call him a Marxist based on a few minutes of facts he summarized, history is recorded from different points of view, and different records that match or share common ground eventually become history (just as it happened with the modern bible, many parts were deleted because they were apocryphal), and in recent years it IS a fact that Mexico is considered a sovereign nation, thing is, the constitution changed so much since Mexican independence, so much that the centralization and decentralization of power created total chaos, so much that the dates when the Mexican laws should’ve been applied took longer, so the ones that really knew history were the ones that lived it. There’s a few data kept secret from both sides, just like there are secrets in the library of the Vatican. It’s a RU-vid video, on history, not a lecture, the color grey exists. Also, there were a few issues in Mexico not mentioned that very few know in history; there was a war on race (guerra de castas) on the southern peninsula growing and growing, so the army had lost many men and kept loosing them, the Comanches on the north and the Rebel Mayans on the south (the Mayan war began before the official dates), also the conflicts in Guatemala and the regions that were in constant dispute because they wanted to join the Mexican side in the south but never got an answer because the country’s policies were always on violent dispute between liberals and conservatives. Just an opinion.

@@stevenhoskins7850 "the absolute scourge" AKA the actual rightful habitants of that land that you ultimately stole from them (after almost exterminating their entire population). You were an invading army, of course they defended themselves against you. What a narcissistic, ignorant asshole.

But it was the only one that left by foreigners that decided to not integrate to Mexican culture and keep slavery when it was abolished in a country that had learnt from its mistakes and were people were finally free for real no matter their origin or skin color.

why would you even come to that conclusion?

In reality it's not that Mexican's are stupid. It's that we are humble, noble, and inviting people and is still reflected today with the vast majority of us. It's a main reason why EVERYONE in the world loves us Mexicans. We just had the misfortune of having such voracious neighbors, that is still visible today with having them promote 'peace' and 'freedom' worldwide.

Settler colonizers

Joseph S most of all country are a product of colonization on the western hemisphere. Almost no native languages are used for national language, or at least spoken by the “settlers” from the colonies. But Paraguay may be the exception here, because they conserve native languages and culture, even hispanic descendants speaks it too. But many Colonies genocide the tribes and assimilate the natives because they think that they are inferior to the colonies.

Rob Dee what’s in the past was already in the past, what matters now is that the U.S. Need to treat immigrants like human beings, whether they got U.S. nationality or not. I kinda sick to see that kind of nationalism actually

@flmvdvsrg I think the word you’re thinking of is, “inhabited,” which is the past participle of the verb, inhabit: (of a person, animal, or group) live in or occupy (a place or environment). "a bird that inhabits North America"

@Alfredo Pineda Kinda like South Africa eh?

They don’t want to be part of Mexico either lol.

@@visorij3374 You are right, we don't need to be part of Mexico again, but our MEXICAN culture it's rising stronger and powerful and it's the predominant now here, just myself 10 years ago i used to speak mostly English and listen entirely English music, now 75% of the time i speak SPANISH (the language of our Spaniard ancestors) and now i listen 100% Regional MEXICAN spanish Music.. and im Proud to let you know almost everyone i know here in CALIFORNIA we are returning to our roots, stop listening to "american, black hip hop" and now we listen more MEXICAN Spanish music.. everyone i know 😎

Same he starts off with a map of the thirteen colonies and talking about the British border in the early 18th century and how the settlers ignore it, then shows a bunch of pictures of covered wagons heading west that were around the mid 19th century....

He was a Border Bandit.

Why should you be hurt over lands Mexico claimed for only 25 years. Under Mexico's first Apatzingan constitution 1814 California, New Mexico, Texas were not Mexico.... Spain never recognized Mexican independence, 1821. Spains King did not sign the Treaty of Cordova and Spain did not turn over any lands to Mexico. Mexico never did anything with the lands in those 25. years and California, New Mexico, Texas were never ancestrally Mexico, so stop the tears....

Yes well they were Spanish lands before they were Mexican. Why shouldn't she cry over over territory stolen from her ancestors. Remember many of the families Mexico have been there for three hundred years or more. Mexico did try to settle the northern territory which why the Mexico allowed American settlers on Mexican land. These American settlers were suppose to assimilate to Mexican culture and language but instead the Americans stabbed them in the back.

@@adom6750 Follow the history. NewMexico which included Arizona, Texas and California were sparsely populated by colonists and the tribes were unconquered. You are conflating the Spanish Colonial settlers in the SW since 1598 and northern tribes as Shasta, Chumash, Pueblo. Mohave, Piaut, Kiowa, Caddo, Comanche, Apache, Ute , Navaho with peoples from Chihuahua, Sinaloa and anywhere south of there who had no ancestral roots in anywhere today's USA. There was no Mexico until 1824, under the Estados Unidos Mexicanos constitution which claimed its states and provinces, the citizens became Mexican citizens including any American living within the Mexican Republic. For the SW citizens up to 1824 had lived under the 250 Spanish Colonial Period 1598-1821 and then the Mexican Period up to 1846. During the Mexican Period it was basically Mexican officials who transplanted north. Generally Chihuahuans, Sinaloans or another South of there did not go north. Texas was vast lands, unpopulated and Mexico needed people so Mexico brought in Americans under land grants. Come 1846 the Mexican War, there were hardly any Mexicans to battle Americans in New Mexico. Same with California and Texans, Mexico had to bring in Mexicans from miles away to battle Americans. The bulk of Mexican citizens were far off from the isolated north and uninterested in a barren wilderness provinces, uninhabitable dangerous living conditions with unconquered warrior Indians. "Mexico" was a Johnnie come late, not until 1824 to CA, NM, TX. After the War and Treaty, these were annexed lands, now under the USA, its citizens were allowed to stay in their SW homeland, became American after 1848. So they had been "Mexican" for only 25 years. As far as Texas, it became its own independent Republic after battles, as Mexico broke its constitution and they were living under no laws. Mexicans began migrating to border areas after 1880. Their roots and ancestral ties were south of the border. Mexico itself was more interested in money instead of an unincorporated wilderness it was unable to manage. It was the USA movement west that attracted Mexicans north after living conditions improved by United States quelling Indians, placing in reservations. Descendents of Spanish colonists and northern tribes are not crying over Mexico, 25 years is nothing, a mountain of a molehill and CA, NM, TX are not ancestrally Mexico. Why some Mexicans cry over lands that their ancestors of centuries ago never claimed is beyond reason....

@@adom6750 you got to look at the state of Tamaulipas vs Texas. I myself am mexican decent. It sounds very romantic of Mexico winning the war and keeping Texas. But when you closely anylize it the Mexican decendent has way more participation, assimilation, opportunities in Texas being in the USA then Texas being a Mexican state. Mexico takes advantage of its own citizens. The animal hospitals in USA have way better hospitals then the ones Mexico have. In mexico the hospitals (public) dont have toilet paper, medication, etc. Not mentioning cartels. Now you might call USA racist. Well? Who controls mexico? Isn't the descendents of the spanish. So me personally dealing with a mexican elite as a Mix is is the same relation I have with an USA white person. Both are european descendent so for me I look at history and say which is better for me and my family and the answer is always USA. Its a blessing USA took texas away from tyranny
