Oddly enough Americans originally moved to Texas to be away from the United States laws. After their revolt and break with Spanish controlled Mexico, they created the independent Republic of Texas in 1836 to continue to remain free of United States control and laws. Texas was admitted to the Union as the 28th state in 1845 as a slave state and the Republic officially dissolved in 1846. Texas seceded from the United States in 1861, and joined the Confederate States of America.

The siege at the Alamo galvanized Texas settlers, transforming the battle into a symbol of resistance against Mexican rule. The determination and sacrifice of the defenders inspired many Texans to rally for independence, leading to increased recruitment for the Texian army. The rallying cry "Remember the Alamo!" became a unifying slogan that motivated settlers to fight fiercely in subsequent battles, ultimately contributing to Texas' victory in the war for independence.
Mexico encouraged foreign settlement in Texas, but then Americans far outnumbered Mexicans in Texas. The Americans started to want to be independent, so they started the Texas Revolution. The Alamo was the first battle. Although all the Americans were killed, the Mexicans, in proportion, had many more losses. After that, the U.S. sent aid to the Texan army, which then routed the Mexicans at San Antonio and San Juanito (I think). Texas became a U.S. state 9 years later, in 1845.
