The Presidio and Mission San Diego de Alcalá, founded in 1769, formed the first European settlement in what is now California.

In 1850, California became part of the United States following the Mexican–American War and the admission of California to the union.The city is the seat of San Diego County and is the economic center of the region as well as the San Diego–Tijuana metropolitan area.
