A Bit of History In 1835, Mexican president Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna took all government power into his hands. This pushed Texans further toward independence. In San Antonio, a small army of Texans led by William B. Travis was occupying an abandoned Spanish mission known as the Alamo. Mexican forces surrounded the Alamo for 12 days. Then, early in the morning of March 6, 1836, the Mexican army charged the Alamo. Both the Texans and the Mexicans fought bravely for more than an hour and a half. In the end, almost all of the 187 men inside the Alamo were killed. Included among the dead were famous frontiersmen Davy Crockett and Jim Bowie. Losses on the Mexican side were also high. Defeat at the Alamo united the Texans in their fight for independence. With cries of "Remember the Alamo!" echoing across the battlefield, Sam Houston's army attacked the Mexican forces at San Jacinto on April 21, 1836. The Texans captured Mexican president Santa Anna and won their independence. Texas had become an independent nation. The Lone Star Republic held its first presidential election in 1836. War hero Sam Houston defeated Stephen Austin and became the republic's first president. Texans voted to join the United States as soon as possible. The Lone Star flag was adopted in 1839 to represent the Republic of Texas. When Texas joined the United States in 1845, the Lone Star flag became the state flag. It is flown today all across Texas. Texans are proud of their history. Today many students in Texas show their pride every morning by saying a pledge and salute to the Texas flag. "Honor the Texas flag. I pledge allegiance to thee, Texas, one and indivisible." (copied from the textbook Build Our Nation publishers Houghton Mifflin) Contributed by Lady Blue. Thanks Lady Blue! |
