The area owned by Mexico that was settled by many Americans moving west is known as Texas. In the early 19th century, American settlers, attracted by the promise of land and opportunity, migrated to Texas, which was then part of Mexico. This influx of settlers eventually contributed to tensions between the settlers and the Mexican government, culminating in the Texas Revolution and Texas's eventual annexation by the United States in 1845.
