In 1821, Mexico became an independent republic, free from Spain. At the time, Texas was
known as Tejas. Tejanos were people of Mexican and Latin-American descent who lived
there. Texas was a largely unsettled part of Mexico. San Antonio, originally established by
Spanish missionaries in the early 1700s, was the largest settlement. However, the Mexican
government wanted to further populate the land. Leaders of the new nation invited Anglo-
American settlers to San Antonio. They were called Texians and were welcomed at first
because they swore loyalty to Mexico. However, as the population grew, tension increased.
The Mexican government wanted Texians to better assimilate to Mexican culture. The
government was dissatisfied that American settlers would not adopt Catholicism, learn
Spanish or free their slaves. The Mexican government soon set up laws prohibiting further
American immigration to Texas.
