Too much power to the central government.
The correct answer is A) The Spanish government sent mainly soldiers and priests, while Anglos sent families to farm there.
The statement that accurately contrasts Spanish and Anglo methods of settlement in Texas is "The Spanish government sent mainly soldiers and priests, while Anglos sent families to farm there."
The faraway distance to the capital of New Spain -modern-day México City- made it difficult for Spaniards to send people to inhabit the Texas territories. The government only sent troops to Texas. On the other hand, Anglo people sent entire families that had a more entrepreneurship mentality to farm the land, grow crops, sell them, and make a profit. These families arrived to stay and start a new life and they were totally committed to being successful in the endeavor.
