That was the U.S.-Mexican War. It was from 1846 to1848. The war between the United States and Mexico had two basic causes. First, the desire of the U.S. to expand across the North American continent to the Pacific Ocean caused conflict with all of its neighbors; from the British in Canada and Oregon to the Mexicans in the southwest and, of course, with the Native Americans.
It was fought between the Mexican Army and former Mexican citizens who had declared thir independence from Mexico, some of whom had enrolled in the Texas Army and newcomers who had come to Texas to aid in its defense.
At El Alamo, Texas.
the battle of san jacito i think
It was called The Battle Of Puebla.
The Alamo was battle between the freedom fighters for Texas independence and the Mexican Army. While many Mexicans were killed in the battle, all of the fighters in the Alamo were killed.
No. The Texas was not free until the battle of San Jancito. They defeated the Mexican army and captured Santa Anna here.
Houston commanded the Texan army which routed the Mexican army under Santa Anna at the Battle of San Jacinto, effectively driving the Mexican army out of Texas and paving the way for Texan independence.
He commanded the Texans against the Mexican Army at the Battle of San Jacinto which was a major victory and ended the Texas Revolution.
He wanted to draw in the main force of the Texas army and settle the revolt in one battle.
At the Battle of the Alamo the Mexican army had 1,800 men. The Republic of Texas had an army of 189 men. An estimated 600 Mexicans were killed and all 189 men of the Republic of Texas army were killed.
There was a long term problem based on Native American raids on Texian settlements that the Mexican Army found impossible to halt. Texians resented this failure of the Arny to protect them from the Commancheria. The Mexican Army had provided a cannon to the citizens at Gonzales for use in Indian attacks. Wanting their weapon back lead to the first armed conflict between the Mexican Army and the settlers.
