New Taylor beat Santa Anna fair and square.
That's why we got Texas et al. Houston did his part, but the final victory against the chaos that was Mexico was secured by non-anarchists.

Come to think of it, Mexican government at that time could be described as anarchy, punctuated by fits of brutal repression. Exactly what you get without a strong government. Rule of anything and everything except law.

Everything's a mystery until you figure out how it works.
We are here to go!

New what history books are you reading?
By treaty and conquest Texas was owned and operated by Spain. (you know, the european country next to portugal, south of france.) When did the US declare war on spain and attack spanish troops in texas? Where is the congressional declaration of war? Why was Burr tried for treason for attempting the same thing?
It was anarchists who were determined to live under their own rules. Not American fscking lawyers attacking the mexicans with writs of appropriation. Sometimes your densian thought processes are a wonder to behold.
