History of California Admission Day 2019
Yet, the event involves some of the most complicated and contentious political skirmishes in the history of the United States. Out in our Los Angeles statehood was not terribly popular with the ensconced Californios who were more concerned with an uncaring Mexican government, encroaching American carpetbaggers and foreign powers who looked to take the sleepy pueblo under their powerful wings. El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de Los Ángeles was a forgotten outpost with only about 1500 souls dotting the hills and dry valleys of the pueblo. It would take a little of the old Manifest Destiny to get us truly involved with joining the expansion of the United States. At first the Californios fought the Mexicans for sovereignty, then the Americans before being basically outnumbered by the U.S. In old Los Angeles it even involved some genuine military skirmishes as part of the Mexican-American war including the Siege of Los Angeles (where Californios routed the thinly represented occupying American forces), the battle of Dominguez Rancho, the battle of San Pascual (with 21 Americans killed) and the Battles of San Rio San Gabriel and La Mesa that ended hostilities in the war and lead to the “Treaty of Cahuenga” and the end of the Mexican-American war with the rather one-sided Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.
