yawa3891 [41]

The correct answer is:

Sam Houston

Explanation:

Samuel Houston (1793-1863) was an American politician and lawyer who played a big role in the annexation of Texas to the United States.

Houston was the main leader of the Battle of San Jacinto, were Santa Ana was forced to recognize Texas as an independent nation. After that, Sam Houston was elected President of the Republic of Texas.

Although some people in Texas did want to be part of the United States, a lot of Americans were already living in Texas and wanted to become a state because being part of the United States Nation would get better protection, economic trades, and other benefits. Sam Houston was one of them, one argument Houston made was that Texas could not defend itself against hostile foreign powers.

Texas annexation was delayed because Northern states did not wanted slavery to expand and Texas was a slave state, Houston thought that if European countries were interested in Texas, the United States would admit them, so he sent J. Pinkney Henderson to England and France to negotiate trade alliances and secure Texas recognition.

However, it was until Sam Houston's second term that annexation was achieved, after long negotiations with United States President John Tyler, The House of Representatives voted to make Texas a state, and on December 1845 James K. Polk, the following President of United States signed the annexation of Texas.
