History: What is now the state of California has been inhabited for thousands of years. Europeans began to explore this land occupied by indigenous Native Americans in 1542; in 1769 the Spanish began to colonize the area by building missions and forts. When Mexico won independence from Spain in 1821, California became part of the country of Mexico. As American pioneers migrated westward in search of land and prosperity in the 1840s, they began to challenge Mexican governance. The ensuing Mexican-American war ended in 1848, with Mexico relinquishing its claim to California. Two years later on September 9, 1850, the territory of California became the 31st state admitted to the Union. California is the most populated state and the 3rd largest state by area in the nation. The state is approximately 250 miles in width and 770 miles in length.
