In 1845, Texas was annexed to the United States, becoming the 28th state. This event followed nearly a decade of independence after Texas won its freedom from Mexico in 1836. The annexation intensified tensions between the U.S. and Mexico, ultimately contributing to the outbreak of the Mexican-American War in 1846. This pivotal moment marked a significant shift in Texas' political landscape and its relationship with both the U.S. and Mexico.
