Reply to comment by DoomGoober in TIL of the Battle of San Jacinto. Just six weeks after the Texans terrible loss at The Alamo in 1836. The Texans regrouped under Sam Houston, and surprised the Mexican forces and overwhelming defeated the Mexicans. The Texans had 11 soldiers killed and the Mexicans lost 650. by triviafrenzy
The war was about introducing slavery to Texas, which Mexican law forbade. However, Steve F Austin was hell bent on bringing slaves to Texas so that’s in short why the Alamo was ever a thing in the first place.
