The mass executions at the Alamo and Goliad during the Texas Revolution were primarily ordered by General Antonio López de Santa Anna, the Mexican president and military leader. After the Texian forces surrendered at the Alamo in March 1836, Santa Anna's troops executed the remaining defenders. Similarly, at Goliad, after the Texian surrender, Santa Anna ordered the execution of about 400 Texian prisoners, an event known as the Goliad Massacre. These actions fueled anger and resistance among Texians, ultimately contributing to their fight for independence.
