Province of New Mexico : ウィキペディア英語版 | Santa Fe de Nuevo México
Santa Fe de Nuevo México ((英語:Santa Fe (Faith ) of New Mexico); shortened as Nuevo México or Nuevo Méjico, and translated as New Mexico) was a province of the Viceroyalty of New Spain, and later a territory of independent Mexico. The United States gained control of the area via the Mexican Cession. ' is often incorrectly believed to have taken its name from the nation of Mexico. However, it was named by Spanish explorers who believed the area contained wealthy Amerindian cultures similar to those of the Aztec Empire, and called the land the "Santa Fe de Nuevo México". This naming was retained for the Mexican territory and US territory, as well as the subsequent US state. ==Geography== Nuevo México was centered on the upper valley of the Rio Grande (Río Bravo del Norte), in an area that included most of the present-day U.S. state of New Mexico. It had variably defined borders, extending into the present-day U.S. states of western Texas, southern Colorado, southwestern Kansas, and the Oklahoma panhandle, although actual settlements centered on Santa Fe. For all but a few years of its existence, its capital was Santa Fe.
