war between Texans and Mexico, 1835-1836, resulting in the independent Republic of Texas
The Texas Revolution was a war fought between 1835 and 1836 between Texans and Mexico that resulted in Texas becoming an independent nation, the Republic of Texas. This conflict matters because it established Texas as a separate country and set the stage for its later admission to the United States, which had major consequences for North American history and territorial expansion.
