Texas was initially denied admission to the United States due to concerns over its large enslaved population and the potential imbalance it could create in Congress between free and slave states. Additionally, there were fears about the implications of annexing a large territory that might lead to conflict with Mexico, which still claimed Texas at the time. Ultimately, Texas was admitted in 1845, but only after diplomatic and political negotiations.
