Answer
fter Mexico won its independence in 1821, American colonists were initially allowed to settle in Texas. However, tensions arose due to cultural and political differences, leading Mexico to prohibit further American immigration to Texas in 1830. Spain had already prohibited slavery in its territories before Mexico gained independence. Texas was not given to the United States until the Texas Revolution in 1836, followed by annexation in 1845.
