Texan

Texas History can mean many things as a Texan. It could start when Texas independence from Mexico. It could begin from the natives that were here before Texans were. It can be about the struggle many people faced, or it could be about the dreams settlers had when coming into new land. I believe that Texas History is about History and history. It is about the History that has made the textbooks and about the accomplishments and victories that everyone has made in their own history. That is what this

Europeans groups immigrated Texas during the 1820s. There is a total population of 26.96 million of people in Texas. It is the second largest state in population in the U.S. after California. When Frederick Ernst obtained land in Austin, Texas the German-Texan culture started in 1831. Within a couple of years other German families, such as the Kleberg’s, a family later to become associated with the King Ranch in South Texas. Germans traveled by ships and wagons pulled by horses. The reason why some Germans

traditions on St. Patrick’s day, and they aren’t without good reason. March isn’t the most beautiful month of the year around the U.S., so many partiers tend to remain indoors and enjoy a variety of cooked or boiled foods. We’re in Texas, though. We Texans have the unique privilege of beautiful March weather (at least most of the time!), and we would be remiss not to use it. There are plenty of St. Patrick’s Day cuisine options suitable for the outdoors, so let’s get started: Try a St. Patrick’s Day

The War with Mexico Wasn’t Justified In 1846 the newly formed Mexico and the United States of America had become engaged in a full blown war. The start of the war is disputed, on the American side they said that their own blood was shed on their own soil. However the Mexicans would claim that in fact the Americans were illegitimately on their land and the Americans were only there to entice a war. The reasons the Americans unjustly started the war was in one part due to land disputes. The Americans

viewpoints and recommendations for shaping or reforming government policy. To be sure, the people of Texas face many challenges, two of the most compelling issues being the crisis in healthcare and in education. Not only are we lacking in these areas as Texans, but also on the national level. The parties’ stance on these two major issues defines them, giving us insight into the mind and intentions of each. “Of the people, by the people, and for the people” heralds the Texas Democratic Party. As stated

For nearly my whole life, my family and I have lived beachside near the popular tourist attraction Ron Jon’s in Cocoa Beach, Florida. With that being said, since the beach lures in many tourists, these tourists dispose of their trash irresponsibly and in many scenarios the trash ends up in the ocean polluting the water. Furthermore, water pollution is significant to acknowledge because due to the pollution, there are typically negative consequences that follow interfering with the surrounding marine

poll taken in 2013 by the HoustonPress that showed 44% of the state owned guns.(2013) The reason was The Second Amendment. We have the right to have a gun to hunt and protect ourselves. If you were to sit down and have a conversation with most true Texans, you would eventually get around to what is your favorite gun and what was your biggest kill this season? I was shocked when I moved to teach in a rural community and the first day of deer season came and the majority of the male students did not

for judicial office has become more and more costly due to the amount of money it takes to purchase commercial ads and politicking. This has made it necessary to take donations in order to have a substantial campaign here inlays the dilemma; most Texans are indifferent to judicial campaigns leaving the donating to interest groups, lawyers, and possible litigants. Making the possibility for leniency and partiality in future cases where the donators could expect a more favorable outcome in their cases

Recreational Use of Marijuana in Texas Over the past few years, a portion Texans have joined in with other citizens across the United States to push for the legalization of Marijuana. Since Texas is considered a neighbor of Mexico, legalization of cannabis has its pros and cons. One beneficial outcome would be the use of marijuana medically. However, the drug has been used to make money from being transported illegally across the Mexican border. So far, "twenty-three states and the District of Columbia

Based on all four documents I think that the Texans were not justified in declaring independence. I believe this for many reasons. Some reasons were that, the documents that we read were mostly biased towards their own country. Another reason is that they were all stubborn and tried to use conflict and cheating to get their way, for America it was to gain more land for expansion and for Mexico it was to get the Americans to leave them alone. One potential reason is that there is only one document
