  • After the fall of New Spain, the Mexican government wanted to bolster the population of its northern regions to protect its inner core from marauding parties of hostile natives and American filibusters. To rectify the problem, the Mexican government invited men such as Stephen F Austin to bring in loyal colonists from the United States to lay down roots in the region known as Texas. However, unbeknownst to the government officials in Mexico City. This problem would backfire in their face. Seeing the wonderful land of Texas up for grabs, thousands more Americans flooded into the Mexican state and started eating up the land. The Mexican officials tried to stop this flood but to no avail. Fighting starts breaking out against the Texian colonists and Mexican soldiers for years on end. The bloodshed will only rise when a popular Mexican General named Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna takes the reins of government. Though popular initially, Santa Anna soon centralizes power and overturns the Constitution, sparking revolts throughout the country. Tired of having no voice in government and being regulated as a second-class region, the people of Texas rise up hoping to get what they want finally, their state. With the tension rising throughout the country, it will only take a small incident to explode the entire region into civil conflict. It might be something as small as a cannon…

    Excellent video with a lot of details that you don't usually see being mentioned. I haven't seen any videos that cover the Texas Revolution using the graphics you have. I'm glad to have found this channel. When I went to Gonzales I was astounded at what I saw. The gun was so small, and the museum staff said it didn't even work when the battle took place. Then I learned the gun on display is actually a second one they had. They abandoned it on the march to San Antonio. It was recovered in 1936 and is now back home where it belongs.
    The actual "Gonzales Cannon" was recovered after the fall of the Alamo, and recast into a bell that hangs in the belfry of St. Mark's Episcopal in San Antonio. It roared the call to revolution, and now it rings the call to worship. Poetic, I'd say.

      Recently visited the Gonzales Museum. The representative there has a different story of the authentication of their "Come and Take It" Canon than the representative at the Alamo's story. One said it was turned into a bell in a church in San Antonio and one says their museum Canon is the real deal. 😮

    I've been to both Goliad, Gonzales, and the Alamo. The three sites are drastically different from each other.
    Goliad is much like it was in 1836. Still a functioning Catholic church, it's also an Bed and Breakfast. Plus they still do reenacting events at the sight. Including having the massacre at, or near, one of the slaughter fields. You're out in the country. It's quiet. Creepily quiet.
    The Gonzales cannon sits in a large memorial museum in the middle of a park. The town is less than 8,000 people.
    As for the Alamo, they still do reenactments on the site, but it's now surrounded by a major city. Just the chapel and first floor of the Long Barracks remain, plus a small piece of the southwest corner where the 18-pounder sat. All the other parts have been demolished and stores and a Post Office now sit on the site where hundreds of men died horribly. Fighting for what they thought to be right.

      "Remember the Alamo", in Texas, Mexico. "The Watermelon Slice", by Jack Oliver, in Panama. "The Sinking of the Battleship Maine", in Havana, Cuba. "The sinking of the RMS Lusitania", off the coast of Ireland. Pearl Harbor, in Hawaii. Gulf of Tonkin, in Vietnam. "The Invasion of the Tiny Island of Grenada", for the construction of... An Airport? The 911, in New York. "Weapons of Mass Destruction", in Iran... It is difficult understand how Mr. Davy Crockett can be considered an "American Hero"... Well, may be cuz curiously, it turns out that ALL US Heroes are Criminals. (Is a Verifiable Fact that ALL US Heroes are "Bandits". Is a sad truth: Our country, the US, is a world military and economic power, but nevertheless, no US Citizen can be proud of this, cuz our Empire is the product of Piracy, Slavery, to the Looting, Genocide, Murder of Word Leaders, the Opium and Cocaine Trafficking. And the Weakness of other sovereign nations. We have "Grown" 711 the size of our territory from the original 13 colonies). Okay: Mr. Crockett was a Fur Trapper, Mercenary, Looter and Slaver. He was involved in the Dispossession, Robbery and Murder of the Native Nations of America. Particularly with the Cherokee, Shawnee, Creek, and Seminole Peoples. And it is precisely here that Mr. Crockett gains notoriety with his abuses. The Myth that Mr. Davy Crockett confronted Mr. Andrew Jackson for his "Intentions to take away territories from the Native Americans to concentrate them in Oklahoma", are False. Mr. Davy Crockett did NOT argue with Mr. Jackson. Quite the opposite. He supported him and the "Emigration" was carried out. Mr. Davy Crockett was a Barely Educated Fortune Seeker Adventurer who went all the way to Texas to Rob Property (as he had any real property of his own). In fact, all those who died at The Alamo were Pirates and Assassins. Mr. James "Jim" Bowie, for example, was a Mercenary who fled from southeastern Missouri to Louisiana, cuz the Law wanted him for a double murder. Mr. William Barret Travis, Mercenary, Slaver and Thief. Him, one day and without further ado, abandoned his pregnant wife; to his son and unborn daughter, to: "Start all over again, in Texas." He was also fleeing from the Law. Finally: Who died in The Alamo fought for the Independence of Texas? Independence? NOT! None of those who died at the Battle of The Alamo were originally from Texas. NO ONE! They were all newcomers. They were all from Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Mississippi, from Virginia, Carolina, Tennessee, etc. But not from Texas. All came to Texas cuz were promised 4,600 acres as soon as they won their war. Therefore, they were Pirates. For this to be understood, we make a comparison. Question: Is it Fair and Legal, that the Russians have declared the "Independence" of Donbas? Not! The Russians of Donbas can NOT declare "Independence" cuz they are NOT Ukrainians... They are Russians! Now: Is it Fair and Legal for Mr. Putin to Recognize and Annex the Donbas to Russia? Not! That's a Robbery. Well, this is exactly the same as what happened with Texas. The territory of Texas belonged to Mexico, and there was NO reason nor "Casus Belli" for citizens of Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky, Carolina, etc. claim Territorial Rights. So which Independence? Why here, in US, the Pirates are Heroes?

      It was Mexican territory until American illegals (Davy Crockett) crossed into Mexico and declared themselves independent. And then two two hundred years Americans said they don’t like illegals.

      @@WarhawkYT I think the Mexican Army did a better job in Texas than in the Mexican American War, when Mexico was mobilized they were able to repel Texans and retain the strategic initiative all the way until San Jacinto. Even after that, the Texan Raids at Mier and Santa Fe were failures while Mexico was able to retake San Antonio twice.
      Another thing is the naval warfare, Mexican Navy captured the Texan Schooner Independence, and the Brutus and the Invincible ran aground while fighting two mexican brigs. If Commodore David Porter was still in the Mexican Navy he probably would have crushed the Texan Navy and burned Galveston.
      This is understandable given that Texas was basically a filibuster affair, fighting against USA was a whole different thing.

    • @moic9704
      @moic9704 Před 6 měsíci +1

      An Interesting difference I noticed is that the big names of the mexican army during the war against France tend to be on the younger side and didnt participate in the Mexican American War.
      Sherman, Grant, McClellan, Meade, Lee, Stonewall Jackson and Longstreet were veterans of the Mexican American War.
      However, Ignacio Zaragoza (the one who defeated the French in the Cinco de Mayo Battle), Porfirio Diaz (the big hero of the war), Ramon Corona and Sostenes Rocha (one of the most skilled generals in Mexican History) were just Teenagers during the Mexican American War, Gonzalez Ortega (who bravely defended Puebla against the french) was an adult however he didnt serve in the war, an exception would be Mariano Escobedo who served as a foot soldier.

    • @menin84
      @menin84 Před 6 měsíci

      @@moic9704 I thought it interesting too. One would think that if the big names from the American civil war showed up in the Mexican American war the reverse would be true too during the french intervention. yet, folks like Zaragoza were born in what was at the time the state of coahuila y tejas. A loose connection, but one that exists all the same. I suppose the anarchy in between conflicts that occur don't allow for very much continuity.

    Just saying but I totally can’t wait to see the battle of the Alamo and I can’t wait to see it because in 2019 I visited the Alamo and once I saw it and saw the list of the defenders who lost their lives I was awe stricken and when I saw the list of the defenders I realized that a lot of my fellow Irish, Scottish, English German and one of my danish brothers along with my brethren from Pennsylvania and New Jersey and I said Fois Dhut which is the Scottish Gaelic word for rest in peace and what I mean by my fellow Irish, Scottish, German, English and danish brothers is even though I am an American I consider anyone part or full Scottish, Irish, German, English and danish my fellow brothers and sisters because I had ancestors from those nations and same thing with my brethren from New Jersey and Pennsylvania but I do live in New Jersey and even though I am not to related to the Americans who perished at the Alamo and even though their living descendants are strangers to me they are still my brethren and just saying but I can’t wait to see you do the Mexican American war but can you also do a series on the Black Hawk Wars and these two wars took place in different decades and different states in the US The first war was fought between April 6th and august 27th 1832 and it took place in what is today the modern day states of Illinois and Wisconsin and the opposing sides in this war consisted of the United States part of the Winnebago
    , part of the Potawatomi tribes and the Menominee and Sioux tribes and the leaders on their side included future confederate president Jefferson Davis, Future brigadier general Robert C Buchanan who would serve in the civil war, Winfield Scott and Future American presidents Zachary Taylor and a volunteer who would eventually become president Abraham Lincoln facing them was the opposing side which consisted of the rest of the Winnebago and Potawatomi along with the Sauk, Fox, Meskwaki, Kickapoo and Ottawa nations and they were under the leadership of Chiefs Black Hawk of the Sauk and namesake of the first war, Neapope spiritual leader of the Sauk and Wabokiesheik army commander of the Winnebago and Sauk. The second war took place from 1865 to 1872 and this second war was fought in the modern day states of Utah, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico and the war would also be fought in an area known as Four Corners which is where the state lines of Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico meet each other and the opposing sides in this war was the United States but on the other side was the Ute, Southern Paiute, Navajo, Apache and Timpanogos people and these Indians were led by chiefs Antonga Black Hawk namesake of the second war who was the war chief of the Timpanogos, Cheif Kanosh of the Pahvant band of the Ute people and Manuelito of the Navajo tribe who was best known for resisting the long walk of the Navajo.

    • @moic9704
      @moic9704 Před 3 měsíci

      A quick look at wiki says that Cos was the husband of Lucinda Lopez de Santa Anna, however in the biography of Santa Anna written by Will Fowler that sister doesnt exists, according to Fowler Santa Anna had four sisters: Francisca, Merced, Guadalupe and Mariana.
      Francisca and Merced were married but not with Cos, there is little data about Guadalupe and Mariana and Fowler makes no mention of a marriage with Cos as far as I remember.
      Fowler mentions that Santa Anna's father was close to the Cos family but I am not sure if this is the same family of General Cos.
      There is also a book that contains biographies of all mexican generals and colonels in 1840, Cos is recorded as "40 years old, single and of good health"

Living in South Texas and spending most of my life very much in the culture plus the wife/mother in law who are both Mexican(nationals not just Texan of Mexican decent) I get corrected on how I say or speak Spanish/Mexican names. You did a great job on the video but an example is La Bahia in Goliad TX or some of the Mexican last names. I know you do not have an accent also like many Mexicans or S. Texans but just would round the video out a bit working on pronunciations. Again not trying to be rude or put down the hard work you did to publish the video I actually liked the video overall.
