L 1912 It was the
Spanish who were its first ex
plorers, De Vaca visiting this
region in 1536 and Coronado
four years later. The natives
were the Pueblo Indians, al
though they are somtimes errone
ously reputed to have been Az
tecs as they were well advanced
in the arts and had a compara
tively high civilization. These
Indians were conquered in 1598
by Juan de Onate and became
subject to Spanish rule, being
forced to work the mines and
pay tribute. Missions were estab
lished and Santa Fe was founded
~ about 1605.
Except for a period of ten
years when the Indians revolted
and maintained their indepen
dence, New Mexico remained un
der Spanish control until in 1821
Mexico gained its independence
- from Spain and New Mexico
became a province of Mexico.
Thus it remained until the out
break of the Mexican war, when
~ in 1846 Colonel Kearny marched
from Fort Leavenworth with his
- troops, occupied Santa Fe and
- declared this region a part of the
United States. By the Treaty
~ with Mexico in 1848, the upper
~ part of the state was formally
~ ceded to the United States and
~ the Territory of Mexico was or
~ ganized in 1851, which reached
~ from Texas to California.
[ Arizona was set off from New
'~ Mexico in 1863 and a few years
. later a portion was contributed
~ te Colorado. Application for ad
~ mission as a state started in
1850, but it was not until 1910
~ that New Mexico became the
~ forty-seventh state.
New Mexico ranks fourth in

~ area of 122,634 square miles, but
