The capital of Mexican Texas (Coahuila y Tejas) was Saltillo.The Republic of Texas had several capitals, as it was relocated during the war with Mexico. The first was Washington-on-the-Brazos, where the Texas Declaration of Independence was signed at the Convention of 1836. Harrisburg (the provisional capital) was again the capital until it was burned by the Mexican army. The interim president of the Republic established a capital at Velasco, but the first legislature was convened in 1836 in Columbia. The final location was Austin (renamed from Waterloo in honor of Stephen F. Austin), which became the capital of the state of Texas in 1846.
The first Republic of Texas president was Sam Houston.
Austin has alway been the capital city. WRONG!!! Before Texas integrated itself in to the union, and relinquished its domain over the chunks of Oklahoma Kansas Wyoming Colorado and about half of New Mexico that made up what was the Republic of Texas, five sites served as temporary capitals of Texas (Washington-on-the-Brazos, Harrisburg, Galveston, Velasco and Columbia) before president Sam Houston moved the capital to Houston in 1837. In 1839, the capital was moved to the new town of Austin by the next president Mirabeau B. Lamar.
The first Capital of Texas was the town of Columbia, today the town is known as West Columbia which is about 50 miles south of Houston, in Brazoria County. It served as the Capital from September to December 1836.
Officially (i.e. per the state), a total of six flags have flown over Texas. Going in order, they are: Spain, France, Mexico, the Republic of Texas, the Confederate States of America, and the United States. In reality, a total of nine flags have flown over Texas. The ones that tend to get left out are: 7. The First Republic of Texas (1819). It was established by adventurers from the U.S. with the capital in Nacogdoches. It has no connection with the 1836-1845 republic. 8. The Republic of Fredonia (1826-1827) based in East Texas with the capital at Nacogdoches. It has no connection with the Republic of Freedonia in the Marx Brother's movie "Duck Soup". 9. The Republic of the Rio Grande (1840) based in South Texas and Northern Mexico with the capital at Laredo.

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, founded by William Penn, was the first capital of the new republic. Washington, D.C. is the modern day capital of the United States.
The third capital of Texas was originally called "Waterloo." It was renamed Austin in honor of Stephen F. Austin, who is often referred to as the "Father of Texas" for his role in leading the first successful colonization of the region by Anglo settlers. The name change occurred in 1839 when it was designated as the capital of the Republic of Texas.
