In 1835, the United States experienced significant social and political changes. This year marked the beginning of the Second Party System's decline, as tensions grew between the Democratic Party and the Whig Party. The economic landscape was also shifting, with the rise of industrialization and urbanization. Globally, 1835 was notable for the establishment of the Texas Revolution, where American settlers in Texas sought independence from Mexico. This conflict would eventually lead to the creation of the Republic of Texas in 1836, influencing the future expansion of the United States.
