Stephen F. Austin faced several enemies during his efforts to colonize Texas, notably the Mexican government, particularly under President Antonio López de Santa Anna, who opposed the growing influence of Anglo settlers. Tensions with local Mexican citizens and Tejanos, who felt marginalized by the influx of settlers, also posed challenges. Additionally, within the Anglo community, rival settlers and factions sometimes conflicted over land and resources, complicating Austin's leadership and efforts for unity.
