how does the question of Texas statehood reflect the larger issues of the US at that time?
please give me factual input! Thanks!
Texas was part of Manifest Destiny. People felt that the US was destined to control the North American continent and the world. Texas won its independence from Mexico and then applied to become part of the United States.
In addition, Texas entered the US as a slave state. Back then states were Free States or Slave States.
