False. The Mexican-American War (1846-1848) and the Apache-Mexico Wars (17th to 19th centuries) were separate conflicts and unrelated to each other. The Apache-Mexico Wars refer to the ongoing conflicts between various Apache tribes and the Spanish Empire, and later the Republic of Mexico, over territorial disputes and raids. These conflicts continued after the Mexican-American War and were only resolved through treaties and forced relocations in the late 19th century.
