Answer:

d. I, III, IV, II

Explanation:

Moses Austin was an American pioneer and businessman who 'colonized' Texas. He was one of the very first American settlers in modern-day Texas which was previously part of Mexico.

Moses Austin was previously a businessman dealing in different businesses. But with the economic crisis, he was covered in a huge crisis of debt. Determined to change his life, he began to make plans to bring settlements in Spanish Texas. At first, his plan was refused by Governor Antonio María Martínez. But with the help of Baron de Bastrop, he again met the Governor and finally, his plan was approved by the Spanish government. After the successful negotiation, he returned to Missouri to recruit people for the settlements.

Thus, the correct chronological sequence is option d.
