Initially, Mexican leaders think they have a good chance of defeating the Americans, but they have few troops to oppose United States advances into California and New Mexico. Mexico's defeat in Central Mexico where they were the dominant force is linked to lack of coordination among Mexican generals. After Mexico's defeat in the 1846-1848 conflict, racial, political, and economic considerations play a role in determining just how much of the territory gained military the United States will claim.
