Answer:

Spain claimed the region that is now New Mexico in the sixteenth century; it became a part of Mexico in 1821; and it was given to the United States in 1848. (through the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo).

Explanation:

At the time of its founding (on September 9, 1850), the New Mexico Territory included the majority of the modern-day state of New Mexico, more than half of the modern-day state of Arizona, and portions of the modern-day states of Colorado and Nevada. Congress approved The Compromise of 1850 to divide up the areas the United States acquired from Mexico.

This defined the northern border of the area as a straight line at 37 degrees north latitude. The Colorado River formed a portion of the western border of the New Mexico Territory.
