<!-- Under Spanish rule, southern California and the ranchos prospered and grew with the missions. ''[[Californio]]'' cattle ranchers and the local people evolved into a different society from the northern American immigrant settlers of the fur-trapping and mining economy that developed in the [[Sacramento Valley|Sacramento River valley]]. This dichotomy of evolution was reflected during the Mexican–American War where the American immigrants of the north coveted the developed property, ranch lands, and personal riches of the more prosperous southern Alta California ''Californios'' and their vast ranchos. --> <!-- (Reference Historical California Adobes and Rancho San Pascual).
