Colorado Experience

Pueblo Border Wars

Season 1 Episode 106 | 27m 59sVideo has Closed Captions

Pueblo has long been the battleground for competing countries and interests.

Pueblo’s sovereignty had long been disputed; Native American tribes, Mexicans and the US all claimed its land. While the town thrived for years on the success of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, the decline in the steel market in the 1970’s led to the company’s bankruptcy, but not before bringing immigrants from around the world to settle there.
