Detailed explanation-1: -The Constitution of 1824 of the Republic of Mexico provided that each state in the republic should create its own constitution. The state of Coahuila and the former Spanish province of Texas were combined as the state of Coahuila and Texas.
Detailed explanation-2: -The constitution of 1824 set a number of democratic goals and provided for a federal republic, consisting of 19 states, four territories, and the Mexico City federal district. Indigenous peoples lost their special colonial status, and accompanying protections, as wards of the government.
Detailed explanation-3: -Under this constitution, American settlers in Texas were exempt from any taxes, tariffs, and government services including defense, so the Texans governed themselves (Wood). They believed the constitution guaranteed self-government (Lord 32).

Austin conferred with the Mexican leaders who framed the Constitution of 1824, and Juan José María Erasmo Seguín represented Texas in the constituent assembly; the farmers of Austin’s colony contributed several hundred bushels of corn to help pay Seguín’s expenses.
