Description
Why was the Mexican-American War so important in the formation of the modern United States? Why is the war still a controversial topic today? Could Texas have survived as an independent nation or as part of Mexico? Ages 11-16.

What have been the main events, and who were the significant leaders and participants in the war? What was the strategic and technological nature of the conflicts, what happened to people on both sides, and why are the consequences of these wars still felt today?
