"Men love their country, not because it is great, but because it is their own."
Seneca
"The Texas Revolution or Texas War of
Independence was a military conflict between
Mexico
and settlers in the
Texas portion of the Mexican state
Coahuila y Tejas. The war lasted from October 2,
1835 to April 21, 1836. However, a war at sea between
Mexico and Texas would continue into the 1840s.
Animosity between the Mexican government and the
American settlers in Texas, as well as many Texas
residents of Mexican ancestry, began with the
Siete
Leyes of 1835, when
Mexican President and General
Antonio López de Santa Anna abolished the federal
Constitution of 1824 and proclaimed the more
centralizing
1835 constitution in its place.
Americans migrated to Texas and eventually fought to
take this land from Mexico."
