Thirteen, from start to finish.
It was a 13 day siege and a one hour battle.
Mexico encouraged foreign settlement in Texas, but then Americans far outnumbered Mexicans in Texas. The Americans started to want to be independent, so they started the Texas Revolution. The Alamo was the first battle. Although all the Americans were killed, the Mexicans, in proportion, had many more losses. After that, the U.S. sent aid to the Texan army, which then routed the Mexicans at San Antonio and San Juanito (I think). Texas became a U.S. state 9 years later, in 1845.
Approximately 1500 were involved. As a side note, all Mexicans are Americans since Mexico is a part of the continent of North America.
By the time of the final assault, there were around 6000 troops attacking the Alamo.
The decisive defeat in Texas was at the Battle of San Jacinto led by Sam Houston defeating Mexican General Santa Ana in a surprise attack. This battle occurred after the devastating defeat of the Texans at the Alamo by the same general Santa Ana. Houston himself lost many friends and even a relative of his wife, Mary, at the Alamo. Houston's troops were rallyed by the cry, "Remember the Alamo."
