Continued settlement of california: the move north. Planned to bring settlers through baja, california on ship and sail in. But because it was settled so late it could not grow as large because the mexican independence came very quickly after it was settled. The beginning indicated it would have rivaled new mexico settlements in size and success. They couldn"t use divide and conquer strategy so instead they used. Velvet glove strategy, where they promised trade, help with agriculture, and peace. The entry into california begins in san diego and then monterrey. They establish 21 missions, starting in san diego and traveling up to. They settled along the coast because it very fertile and they were at peace with the indians: missions were settled like before, but also near the rancheria"s built by. They were very successful, especially the ones between san gabriel and santa barbara: most towns started as presidios and then became towns.
