Detailed explanation-1: -During the Mexican national era, enslaved people of African descent were brought to Texas by the Anglo-American settlers introduced into Texas by Stephen F. Austin and other empresarios, land agents authorized by the Mexican government to help settle Texas.
Detailed explanation-2: -Colonies continued to grow in TX during the Mexican National Era. By 1833, the population of TX was around 20, 000 people and the land was very cheap for settlers. Many settlers believed that TX would eventually become apart of the USA and wanted to own some land when that happened, so they became Empresarios.
Detailed explanation-3: -The war had a huge impact on the development of Texas. When Mexico gained independence, they wrote and approved of the Constitution of 1824. The creation of a federal democratic government was the reason many Americans decided to move to Texas as colonists.
Detailed explanation-4: -Worried that Texas was becoming too independent, the Mexican government cracked down on settlers there in 1830. It forbade further immigration-including the importation of slaves-and began to enforce taxes.
