Before that, it was a territory of Spain, France and Mexico. In 1861, Texas joined the Confederate States of America.

Politically, "county"as it is in most states But if you want the local nomenclature it differs from region to region. I live in the "Hill Country" my family is from "The Piney Woods" of east Texas. Near West Texas is known as "Big Sky Country". The farm land in far northwest Texas is known as "The Panhandle". Anything west of the Pecos River in West Texas is called the "Trans Pecos" . The fertile land near the Rio Grande is called simply "The Valley". THe area near the Gulf of Mexico" is simply known as "The Coast". Yes we know there are other Valleys and other Coast outside of Texas ...but to hell with them....they only count if they are in Texas.
