The 'New York Herald' believed that, in conquering Mexico, the United States would 'civilize' it. What exactly do you think the 'herald' meant by 'civilize'? What les you to your hypothesis?

The NY Herald means the government would "Westernize" it. Mexico is not like the US or Canada in their culture or beliefs, intervention from US government or citizens would definitely change that.
