The correct response is: The U.S. acquired a large tract of land that is now part of at least seven states.
This land acquisition was a significant outcome of the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), which resulted in the U.S. acquiring territories that would later become parts of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Wyoming through the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.
