Which country ruled Texas first secound third fourth fifth and sixth?

Answer 1

Texas was first ruled by Spain (1) from 1519 to 1685. Afterwards, the Kingdom of France (2) was second to claim Texas briefly from 1685 to 1689. Spain regained control of Texas from 1690 to 1821.

After gaining independence from Spain in 1821, Mexico (3) retained sovereignty over Texas territory from 1821 to 1836. Texas (4) then revolted against the Mexican government in 1836 and became its own independent nation, effectively ruling itself until 1845.

In 1845, the United States of America (5)successfully annexed Texas, which acquired statehood that same year. In 1861, the American Civil War broke out and Texas seceded to join the Confederate States of America (6)until it was readmitted into the United States in 1865.

This unique detail regarding various nations' sovereignty over Texas gave way to the state's slogan "Six Flags Over Texas" referring to the flags of the six different countries that held sovereign control over Texas land.
