Explanation:

The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo (1848) ended the Mexican - American War. Under this treaty, Mexico ceded a large portion of its territory to the United States. The Rio Grande River was established as a boundary. Mexico retained the land south of the Rio Grande River. The land west of the Colorado River was part of the cession to the U.S. (in the context of the southwestern U.S. expansion). The land east of the Mississippi River was already part of the U.S. before the Mexican - American War.

Answer:

the land South of the Rio Grande River
