Summary

Description

Map of the states and territories of the United States as it was from 1849 to 1850.

  • On March 3 1849, Minnesota Territory was organized.
  • On September 9 1850, several western areas changed: The Mexican Cession was organized, being split in to Utah Territory and New Mexico Territory, and one portion was admitted as the state of California. These two territories also included a portion of Texas, ceded to the federal government. Finally, a small area known as the Neutral Strip was not officially included in any state or territory. A small portion of Texas and the Mexican Cession became unorganized land.
  • NOTE: This map is inaccurate as the Indian Territory (the majority of which comprises the current state of Oklahoma and existed from the early 1830s until Oklahoma statehood in 1907), is not defined, nor is the Comancheria (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comancheria) defined here. Much of the Northern and Western portions of Texas were claimed but not controlled by Texas.
