How Well Do You Know The History of The Wild West?

When did Texas join the United States?

The decision of Spain to sign a treaty and grant Mexico its independence in the 18th-century had a ripple effect throughout the US as territories that had previously been given to the US were contested by Mexico.

It was in line with this trend that Mexico suspended American immigration to Texas in 1830 after gaining its independence. This made people agitate for Texas to become independent too and they finally got what they wanted in 1844 when Texas became an Independent region, paving the way for it to become part of the United States.
