The United States acquired Texas primarily through the annexation process, which was driven by the desire for westward expansion and Manifest Destiny in the 19th century. After gaining independence from Mexico in 1836, Texas was an independent republic for nearly a decade. The U.S. annexed Texas in 1845, which heightened tensions with Mexico and ultimately led to the Mexican-American War. The acquisition was seen as a way to expand the nation’s territory and bolster its economic and strategic interests.
