How did the Alamo affect the Texans independence?

While tactically insignificant for Mexico & strategically useless for the Texian Army, the Alamo nonetheless effectively pissed off every single inhabitant of Texas & created a unified front against Mexican aggression, despite the battle ending with a Texian loss. Beneficially for Texan Indepence, the Alamo became a rallying cry & motivation for Texian soldiers during battle. What is less widely known is how the Goliad Massacre of Texian POW's & its aftermath affected the Texas War for Independence, becoming a rallying cry in much the same way as did the Alamo. "Remember the Alamo!" & "Remember Goliad" were heard on the battlefield of San Jacinto by Texians under General Sam Houston, a battle which ended the war & brought about establishment of the Republic of Texas.


How did Texas gain independence?

Texas had help from the United States of America. They got very lucky, though they lost the battle of the Alamo.Mexico's dictator, General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, responded by leading an army of several thousand men north to subdue the rebellion. Santa Anna won early victories at the Alamo, a fortress built on the ruins of a Spanish mission in San Antonia, and at Goliad. But the tide of the Texas War for Independence changed when 900 Texans led by Sam Houston regrouped at the San Jacito River. There they surprised Santa Anna's troops in a battle that lasted just a matter of minutes. Victorious Texans forced Santa Anna to sign a treaty recognizing the Republic of Texas. Nine years later, in 1845, Texas was annexed, or added to the United States, becoming the twenty-eighth state.


Which side won during the battle at the Alamo?

the texans _____________________________ The battle of the Alamo was a tactical defeat for the Texans, who were slaughtered to the last man. However, nobody ever expected the Texans to win the battle; it was a holding action, designed to delay the Mexican army under General Santa Ana. During the two weeks while the Mexican army was attacking the defenders at the Alamo, the main force of the Texan army under Sam Houston was assembling. The delay at the Alamo proved deadly to the Mexican army, which was routed at the Battle of San Jacinto a month later. Additionally, the viciousness of the Mexican army at the Alamo and at Goliad (under Santa Ana's orders, they had executed any prisoners) inflamed the Texan soldiers who overran the Mexican forces and returned the favor.
