Explanation

Answer: B - The continental United States was completed with the Gadsden Purchase in 1854. In this exchange, the United States purchased 29,670 in what is today southern Arizona and New Mexico. This came after the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo, which ended the Mexican-American War. The purchase was in part to facilitate the growth of the railroad by securing less mountainous land.
