Answer:

new mexico was a territory, not a state.

Step-by-step explanation:

The biggest difference is that a State has its rights recognized by the constitution and can make laws of their own. Territories do not have such rights recognized and their laws can even be changed. New Mexico would only become a State in 1912.
