The treaty established that Mexico would cede more than half of its territory, which comprised all of what are now the states of California, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, Texas, parts of Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming, Kansas and Oklahoma. In addition, Mexico would relinquish all claims on Texas and the international border would be established on the Rio Grande. As compensation, the United States would pay $15 million for damages to Mexican territory during the war.
