Texas used to be a part of Mexico. Foreign settlers were invited in to help develop the land and its resources. By about 1830, American settlers outnumbered Mexican citizens and started taking over and insisting on the special privileges provided in the US which were not acceptable in Mexico such as owning slaves and having US principles for owning land. Tensions grew between the Mexicans and Americans and the Mexicans started asking for military protection.

The tensions between them led to the Americans illegally occupying and claiming the mission station at El Alamo, and the Mexican government attacked.  The Americans then invaded the Mexican territory and war broke out. The American's ended up winning the war and now Texas, California, Arizona and New Mexico are a part of America.

Ways citizens can influence government officials
Lerok [7]
<em />First of all, they can indeed protest. In the USA, we have the right to do so, and if enough people can protest, the government can notice and make decisions based on the opinion of the people. Secondly, back in history, people used civil disobedience, but if we're talking about the modern world this doesn't apply <em>that much.</em> We can also utilize the media. Millions use it, and a simple tweet or instagram post can spread the word to countless amounts of people, including the government. In fact, the government does actually use social media, giving citizens who want to speak out about their beliefs a better chance to do so. Hope this helps.
