The first half of the 19th century was a tumultuous time for Texas. In just 50 years, the region changed hands between Spain, Mexico, the Republic of Texas, and the United States. These transitions significantly altered the lives of the Native people, Hispanic Tejanos, and Anglo-Texans, living in the region and forever changed the direction of the young United States. During this pivotal time, many legendary figures from American History cemented their place among the pantheon of national heroes—Austin, Bowie, Houston, Crockett, Wallace, Hays, and so many more blazed a path through the texas frontier and helped to create the “Lone Star State.”
This historical map illustrates the events that shaped the Republic of Texas, from the earliest signs of unrest in 1811, through the Republic's last day of independence in 1846 when it joined the United States.
