Texas was previously under the power of Mexico's dictator, Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna. the Texonians already wanted to be free from Mexico, but what sealed the deal was the settlers in America wanting to expand their land, leaving Texas with the hope of being accepted by America as one of their states. even though Andrew Jackson (Americas president at the time) didn't want to annex Texas because of the chances of firing up any more conflicts between Mexico and America, the people of the US urged Texas to become independent so that it COULD be annexed to the united states.
In 1821 Mexico won its independence from Spain. This meant that all territories belonging to Mexico were required to give up the right to be a slave state. Texas did not want to give up its slavery capabilities so they fought for independence from Mexico.
Mexico didn't allow them to own slaves so they fought. After that Texas asked the US to annex them which the US did and Texas entered as a slave state.

The Mexican-American War (1846-1848) was the result of disputed land claims between the United States and Mexico. Mexico claimed most of what is now the southwest US, based on the claims by the Spanish from whom they achieved independence in 1810. The United States, anxious to claim California and the rest of the West, annexed Texas and sent troops to enforce the disputed border. When US troops were engaged by Mexican forces, war was declared.
