The war for Texas independence wasn't an Anglo vs. Mexican conflict. It was a liberty vs. euro-style feudalism struggle. Texas wasn't the only state of Mexico to revolt against the central power's repudiation of the 1824 constitution. Texas
was the only one to make their revolt stick.
Remember the Alamo!

“The war for Texas independence wasn’t an Anglo vs. Mexican conflict”.
Thank you for pointing that out-some do not understand that aspect of Texas-it was a destination for independent thinkers and rebels from Mexico and everyplace else from at least 1700, and likely before then...
