Texas lost the Battle of the Alamo.
The Battle of the Alamo was won by Mexico, but the War for Texas Independence was won by Texas and San Jacinto.
The "Texans" didn't win the Battle of the Alamo. General Santa Anna and his army did. When the Alamo was lost the battle cry "Remember the Alamo" was started and it mobilized the Texans to resist Santa Anna even more until Texas was eventually in American hands.
San Jacinto.
The actual battle was not really significant, but what it did was unite the Texans into a better army and give them a cry to drive them to the end, "Remember the Alamo!". The 100 Texans manning the Alamo were vastly outnumbered by 5,000. The garrison of Texans defending the Alamo lost the battle, but the Mexican Army paid dearly for their victory there. The Mexican forces were soundly defeated at San Jacinto where they lost the war.
the battle cry of the Texans was "Remember the Alamo".

The Battle of the Alamo.
Texans where seeking independece from Mexico.
The Battle of Alamo is important because the Texans fought for freedom for Texas. They wanted to become a free state and not be controlled by the Mexicans
The purpose for the Battle of the Alamo is that Mexico was pursuing north into Texas to fight the Texans. The Texans had declared their independence from the U.S. and Mexico. Mexico though didn't see Texas as an independent country so the Texans rebelled. The Battle of the Alamo was basically for the independence for Texas. Although we lost that battle we won the war and up until The Battle at San Jacinto, Mexico didnt view us as an independent nation.
