What the Most Important Events in California History are
California’s history was very important for the forming of California. The Bear Flag Revolt was the most important event in our state’s history. It helped form the Mexican War that gave California the United States for $15,000,000 dollars. It gave the United States a helping hand of capturing one of the most important citizens in California, Colonel Vallejo, the military leader of the Californios, who was brought to Sutter’s Fort. It was the start of the war.
The Mexican War generated the most change. It made the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in which the United States bought California for $15,000,000 from Mexico. Even though the United States lost many battles, they won the whole war. The United States was granted their wish, their destiny, their Manifest Destiny, to stretch the United States from coast to coast.
California’s history is very important. The Bear Flag Revolt and the Mexican War are part of California history and are two of the most important. The United States would not have gained California without the Mexican War. Californians, as people now call them, would have been ruled by Mexico for a while longer. If none of these important events happened Californians would not be as they are today.
