The Texas War for Independence or the Texas Revolution was an armed conflict between American settlers and the Mexican military leading to the creation of the Republic of Texas in 1836. While the US did not directly encourage the settlers to rebel against the Mexican authorities (in most part because the still young nation did not wish to sour their relationship to the neighbors to the South), many young men from the US supported Texas's actions and joined its cause. Due to this, the relationship between US and Mexico took a turn for the worst. However, it is important to note that the annexation of Texas into the Union under President John Tyler and the Mexican- American War (essentially a land grab attempt by President James Polk) soon after made significantly larger ripples in the relationship between the US and Mexico.
