Detailed explanation-1: -What was a direct result of the Texas defeat at the Battle of the Alamo? Texas separated from Spain. The Revolution ended and Mexico maintained control over Texas.
Detailed explanation-2: -On March 6, 1836, after 13 days of intermittent fighting, the Battle of the Alamo comes to a gruesome end, capping off a pivotal moment in the Texas Revolution. Mexican forces were victorious in recapturing the fort, and nearly all of the roughly 200 Texan defenders-including frontiersman Davy Crockett-died.
Detailed explanation-3: -The revolutionaries who seceded from Mexican authority and held out against a vastly larger Mexican army at the Alamo inspired thousands of others to fight for independence. Today, Texans continue to take special pride in their independence, their uniqueness and even their rebelliousness against larger forces.
