The Mexican War between Mexico and America was a result of numerous conflicts, however, there were many steps Mexico could have taken in an attempt to avoid a war. First off, even after Texas declared independence from Mexico with a signed treaty from the Mexican president, the Mexican government still refused to acknowledge Texas as its own country. America later annexed Texas, but the people of Mexico viewed it as an act of stealing since they considered Texas’s Declaration of Independence void. This formed tension between the two nations as each claimed Texas for its own. Another fault of Mexico’s was the lack of communication. They cancelled diplomatic relations between the US and refused to meet with the American dispatch sent to them.
