Texas' admission to the Union was delayed primarily due to the contentious issue of slavery. The U.S. government was concerned about adding another slave state, which could upset the balance between free and slave states. Additionally, there were fears of potential conflict with Mexico, as Texas had gained independence from Mexico in 1836 but was not recognized by it. Political negotiations and public sentiment surrounding these issues further prolonged Texas's path to statehood until it finally joined the Union in 1845.
