The statement regarding Spanish colonization of Texas that is most accurate is B) Presidios were built near missions to offer military protection.
Explanation:
Presidios were small enclosed forts where a small contingent of military officers and personnel were assigned in New Spain, in the region of what is today the Southwestern United States. They were located close to missions so the miliary officers could provide them with some defense against Native American communities that may have been hostile or from roaming pirates and convicts and escaped slaves, some of whom would also become residents of the presidios. There was not a lot of financial or administrative support for the presidios so they were generally highly autonomous and developed their own local means of survival, taking on local characteristics. They were not just located in Texas. They are found archaeologically in California, New Mexico, and Arizona as well for example.
Presidios were built nears missions to offer military protection.

The success of the colonization was due to the combination of civilian, military and mission communities. There was a lot of conflict in the south and was magnifies by settlers arriving from Spain and native americans.
Answer: Paine claimed that the colonies should sever their ties to England once and for all, establish a democratic government with a written constitution, and thus gain the advantages of free trade and freedom from being constantly dragged into European wars.
