Best Answer

Santa Anna was appointed dictator in 1835, and was still in charge during the annexation of Texas (1845). He in fact, led 5,000 men at San Jacinto, where he fought Sam Houston and his 700 men, almost directly after the Alamo, and was soundly defeated and signed the never ratified Republic of Texas treaty.
