Republic of Texas
The Republic of Texas was an independent nation that existed from 1836 to 1845. It was formed after a successful revolution against Mexico, which had controlled the territory. The republic's capital was located in Austin, and it was governed by a president and a congress.
During its existence, the Republic faced challenges such as conflicts with Native American tribes and economic difficulties. In 1845, Texas joined the United States as the 28th state, leading to significant political and social changes in the region. The legacy of the Republic continues to influence Texas culture and identity today.
