Santa Anna was the leader of Mexico during the Texas Revolution and the Mexican-American War. When Texas wished independence from Mexico, Santa Anna mobilized troops.

When Texas was annexed to the United States, however, Santa Anna was mad again, and attacked when President Polk walked American troops into disputed territories.
