QUESTIONS OF THE TEXAS ANNEXATION

Once upon a time the Texans wanted to join the USA. most of the Texans came from USA at the time.

The act of Texas did not come easily, Mexico refused to look at Texas as a independent country so the USA didn't want to damage the relationship with Mexico and slavery was a problem

Also if Texas joined the union it would tip the balance of strength in the us senate to tword the slave states

THEN ITS A "FIGHT" OVER RECONITION OF TEXAS AND THE CONTROL THE USA WOULD HAVE AND MEXICO

Sam Houston and other wanted or hoped that great britan would show great interest in Texas so USA would annex them
