Answer 3

Despite the U.S. victory and its gain of land, there were several long-term costs of the Mexican-American War war:

25,000 Mexicans and 12,700 Americans lost their lives. Many died of disease.
Mexico lost more than half its territory. U.S. citizens have found great wealth in these areas.
The gain of land increased conflict within the United States over the issue of slavery. Americans argued bitterly over whether to allow slavery in the new territories.
Mexico demanded payment for losses from Native American raids. The U.S. needed mountain-free land to build a railroad. To solve both problems, the U.S. purchased additional land from Mexico under the Gadsden Purchase in 1853.

Answer 22

Besides land the United States had gained resources and materials from the expansion. Materials such as Coal, Gold, and Oil. They received Gold from California due to the California gold rush. They received oil from Texas and other states near it. Coal came from the North East and allowed for industrialization. This is what the United States gained other than land
