Respuesta :

Texas became an independent country.

The United States won the Mexican-American War.

Explanation:

  • Texas gained independence from Mexico back in 1836 and immediately became the subject of a dispute between two neighbors.
  • Mexico has threatened war if the US tries to annex Texas, which did not prevent then-US President John Tyler from starting and successfully ending negotiations with the Republic of Texas on joining the United States, and an annexation agreement was signed.
  • At the very end of his term, with the support of his successor, President-elect Polk, Tyler was able to persuade Congress to support his resolution, and Texas became part of the United States on December 29, 1845.
  • Mexico, however, did not respond by announcing the war, although tensions between the two countries were at their peak.
