History

serg [7]3 years ago

Texas declared its secession from the Union on February 1, 1861, and joined the Confederate States on March 2, 1861, after it replaced its governor, Sam Houston, when he refused to take an oath of allegiance to the Confederacy. As with those of other States, the Declaration was not recognized by the United States government at Washington. Some Texan military units fought in the Civil War east of the Mississippi River, but Texas was most useful for supplying soldiers and horses for Confederate forces. Texas' supply role lasted until mid-1863, after which time Union gunboats controlled the Mississippi River, making large transfers of men, horses or cattle impossible. Some cotton was sold in Mexico, but most of the crop became useless because of the Union naval blockade of Galveston, Houston, and other ports.

In 1494 how did the pope resolve the coflicat over colonies between spain and portugal
DIA [1.3K]
The conflict between Spain and Portugal over colonial rights was resolved by the Pope through the Treaty of Tordesillas. It split the colonial world into a place for Portuguese colonization, and one for Spanish. 

The Portuguese were given all of Africa, the eastern most tip of now Brazil, and--later clarified in the Treaty of Saragossa--everything between the 46th meridian, and the 142nd meridian. Spain was given rights to the opposite, from the 142nd to the 46th meridian.
