Settling the South and Texas involved significant migration and territorial expansion in the 19th century, driven by the promise of fertile land and economic opportunity, particularly for agriculture. In the South, the plantation system flourished, relying heavily on enslaved labor. Texas, initially part of Mexico, saw an influx of American settlers who eventually sought independence, leading to the Texas Revolution in 1836. This expansion contributed to tensions over slavery and statehood, ultimately playing a crucial role in shaping American history.
