there!

In that time, Texas was unoccupied, so the American Colonies were issuing land grants to go and colonize the land. In 1821 Mexico declared independence from Spain, but Austin had received a land grant from Spain to colonize Texas. So, he and Jose Navarro traveled to Mexico to obtain colonizing rights.

Then, Santa Anna became leader of Mexico, and was issuing tariffs and all sorts of tyrannical 'problems'. So Austin traveled to Mexico yet again in 1833 to take part in the Convention of 1833 to meet with the Vice President, to get Immigration bans withdrawn
