Texas became a state after gaining independence from Mexico in 1836 and establishing itself as the Republic of Texas. After nearly a decade as an independent nation, Texas sought annexation by the United States. In 1845, Congress passed a resolution to annex Texas, and it was admitted to the Union as the 28th state on December 29, 1845, leading to territorial disputes and the Mexican-American War.
