Occupée une première fois au XVIe siècle par les Espagnols, qui y fondent Santa Fé en 1610, la région est conquise une nouvelle fois à la suite de la révolte des Indiens Pueblos, qui en a chassé les premiers colons (1680). Après la guerre mexicaine (1846-1848), le traité de Guadalupe Hidalgo (2 février 1848) cède le Nouveau-Mexique (avec l'Arizona et le Colorado) aux États-Unis. Le territoire du Nouveau-Mexique, créé en 1850, se trouve amputé de l'Arizona en 1863 et devient État en 1912. 5, record 1, French, - Nouveau%2DMexique
