==History==
From before the end of the [[Texas Revolution]], [[Mexico]] recognized that the Nueces River was historically the border of [[Coahuila y Tejas|Texas]] from the rest of the country. However, the [[Republic of Texas]] claimed the [[Rio Grande]] as its border with Mexico. This dispute continued after the [[Texas Annexation|annexation of Texas]], and was one of the causes of the [[Mexican-American War]] as the U.S. pursued their [[Manifest Destiny]]. The [[Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo]] ended the dispute, with Mexico recognizing the [[RíoRio Grande]] as its northern border.
