The primary issue that prevented Mexico from colonizing Texas with its own people was a combination of geographic and economic challenges. Texas was sparsely populated and considered remote, making it difficult to attract settlers. Additionally, Mexican authorities faced internal instability and resource constraints, which limited their ability to effectively manage and promote colonization efforts in the region. This situation ultimately led to the invitation of American settlers, which contributed to tensions between Mexico and those settlers.
