Why do you hate Texas,just because we are bigger and better? Hell we could start our own country.Texas has done more for it self and probably has more history than any other State in america.
The Alamo is located in San Antonio. It is where Texas defenders fell to Mexican General Santa Anna and the phrase Remember the Alamo originated. The Alamo is considered the cradle of Texas liberty and the state's most popular historic site.
Texas is the only state to have the flags of 6 different nations fly over it. They are: Spain, France, Mexico, Republic of Texas, Confederate States, and the United States.
Although six flags have flown over Texas, there have been eight changes of government: Spanish 1519-1685, French 1685-1690, Spanish 1690-1821, Mexican 1821-1836, Republic of Texas 1836-1845, United States 1845-1861, Confederate States 1861-1865, United States 1865-present
The King Ranch in Texas is bigger than the state of Rhode Island.
Texas is the only state to enter the United States by treaty instead of territorial annexation.
The state was an independent nation from 1836 to 1845.
On December 20, 1835 the first Declaration of Texas Independence was signed in Goliad and the first flag of Texas Independence was hoisted.
Professional sports teams include the Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Mavericks, Dallas Stars, Houston Astros, Houston Comets, Houston Rockets, San Antonio Spurs, and Texas Rangers.
The capitol in Austin opened May 16, 1888. The dome of the building stands seven feet higher than that of the nation's Capitol in Washington, D.C.
El Paso is closer to Needles, California than it is to Dallas.
Texas includes 267,339 square miles, or 7.4% of the nation's total area.
The official state flag of Texas, called the Lone Star Flag, was adopted in 1845 when Texas became the 28th state of the United States. The colors represent bravery (red), purity (white), and loyalty (blue). The large white star was first used on Texas flags in the 1830's during the battles between Texas and Mexico.

Why give them Something that's NOT THERE's. TEXAS Fought and WON Independence from Mexico. They simply have a Really hard time Digesting DEFEAT!!!!!!!! MAYBE if they think it's truly there's they'll grow a set and ATTEMPT to take it back. Then will see Who Texas Belongs to Once and for all. But i should tell yah If they try will need a New Flag to add all the NEW states we'd divide Mexico into.

One of the 50 states? Nah. I like 50, 50's a nice round number...instead of trying to give away our states, maybe we should try to fix them, instead. A great start for that process would be to go ahead and get the border fence built, in my view.
