Texas was a Mexican state under the constitution of 1824. The Mexican president Santa Anna abrogated the constitution and centralized power. Texas initially petitioned for redress but to no avail, and after a series of battles with the Mexican military declared its independence on March 2, 1836. On April 21, 1836 the Texian army under Sam Houston defeated Santa Anna at the Battle of San Jacinto. From 1836 to 1845 Texas remained an independent nation.
The most important consequence of the war for the United States was the Mexican Cession, in which the Mexican territories of Alta California and Santa Fé de Nuevo México were ceded to the United States under the terms of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. In Mexico, the enormous loss of territory following the war encouraged its government to enact policies to colonize its northern territories as a hedge against further losses.
The Mexican General in charge of the attack on the Alamo was Antonio de Padua María Severino López de Santa Anna y Pérez de Lebrón, more commonly known as Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana. At the time, he was also the President of Mexico.

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.
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.
