No, it is not. Texas and Oklahoma are neighboring states of the United States, and they are not the same. Oklahoma does share a border with Texas; there is also a Texas County in Oklahoma. But when you are talking about Texas, you are talking about a separate state, which is not part of Oklahoma at all.
The combined size of the US states of Texas and California.
After ten years of independence Texas was still menaced by Mexico and the Commanche. Becoming a US State gave Texas added security. Also, Texas received the same rights as any US state at the time, and Texas was allowed to join the Union as a slave state.

This is the United States, where no state is the same measurement as another. Some southern states are larger than some northern states, and some northern states are larger. The state of Georgia is the largest state east of the Mississippi, and Texas and Louisiana are southwestern states that are large.
The Texas flag often is placed on a flagpole at the same height as the U.S. flag on its flagpole, and it's sometimes said that Texas is the only state that can do this. The explanation given is that Texas-unlike other states-was a Republic when in entered the Union. A (licensed?) tour guide of the Texas capital city of Austin tells this on his tours. It is an urban legend. All states can fly a state flag at the same height as the United States flag. However, if both flags are on the same flagpole, the U.S. flag code states that the United States flag must be on top. This urban legend has been spread by word of mouth for many years, but started appearing on the internet by at least 1994 on lists such as "useless facts" and "Texas facts."

There are seven states for which the cardinal (also known as the Northern Cardinal) is the state bird: Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Virginia, and West Virginia.
Short answer...yes! They are the same bird!
Yes. It is perfectly legal for more than one state to have the same state bird. For example, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, Virginia, and West Virginia all have the same state bird - the Cardinal. No matter how many states have previously used it, the Cardinal can still legally be used as another state's emblematic bird.
Not that I know of, but it might be possible States do not have "official" prayers, in the same context that they have a state bird, flower, flag, etc. However, you can find a prayer written for the state of Maine (actually prayers pertaining to all the states) at http://www.washingtonmemorialchapel.org
