It was a territory - that is, land under the sovereignty of the Federal government but not part of any state.
Texas qualifies as such.
Any state that is not California, Nevada, Utah, Texas, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, or Wyoming.
No, it is on the southern border with Mexico between Arizona and Texas.
Alaska is part of Canada. At least Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California were all once part of Mexico.
In 1836 when the Alamo was besieged and fell Mexico was a nation. Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna was president. Texas was one part of the state of Coahuila y Texas established under the constitution of 1824. At that time both Coahuila and Texas seceded from the Republic of Mexico. The Bexar district of the state declared itself the Republic of Texas shortly after the fall of the Alamo while the rest of the state declared itself the Republic of the Rio Grande. In all likelihood there was no shch office as governor.
No Mexico was never part of the Union, Texas which gained independence from Mexico was a slave state and got annexed in the US together with a free state to create equality in congress.
Mexico Texas was originally part of the Spanish holdings in the "New World." When Mexico won its independence from Spain, it claimed Texas as part of Mexico. Texas attracted many American settlers who eventually declared their independence from Mexico and set up the Repubic of Texas, an independent nation. Finally, in 1845, Texas joined the United States as the 28th state.
Present-day Texas consists of what was in 1835 parts of three Mexican states and one Mexican territory:Estado de Chihuahua (State of Chihuahua)Estado de Coahuila y Tejas (State of Coahuila and Texas)Territorio de Nuevo México (Territory of New Mexico)Estado de Tamaulipas (State of Tamaulipas)
Unitl 1836 it was part of Mexico.
Texas wasn't a state because it was part of Mexico until the US fought Mexico for Texas and won. ...That's my best answer. I don't get your question though. Does it mean during the 1200's? Or during the Civil War? Or in 1984?
Yes. Texas became a part of the United States of America on December 29, 1845. Prior to its statehood, Texas was its own country (yes, country) from 1836 to 1845, and was originally part of Mexico. New Mexico was founded on January 6, 1912. It became a state in order to be recognized as more than a territory.
Texas never moved, I believe the Question is "To which Nation was Texas a part before it became part of the U.S." that answer would be Mexico
