Most of the settlers who followed Stephen Austin into Texas hoped for economic opportunities, particularly in agriculture and land ownership. They sought to escape economic hardships and overcrowding in the eastern United States, envisioning a better life in the fertile lands of Texas. Additionally, many were motivated by the prospect of greater personal freedoms and the chance to establish a new community in a less restrictive environment.
*Stephen F. Austin He was a Texan. Him and many other American settlers were unhappy and upset about taking orders from Mexican officials and having all documents in Spanish. When he goes and talks to the Governor ( i believe it was Santa Anna from Mexico) they throw him into jail claiming that he was starting a rebellion and that he will cause an uproar. After 2 years, he was sent free. From there, Texans rose up in a revolt

The Texans were alarmed and outraged by Stephen F. Austin's arrest in 1834, as he was a prominent leader and advocate for their interests in Mexico. Many viewed his imprisonment as a direct threat to their efforts for greater autonomy and representation. His arrest galvanized support among Texan settlers, leading to increased calls for resistance against Mexican authority and ultimately intensifying the push for Texan independence. Austin's eventual release further solidified his role as a key figure in the Texas Revolution.
