Although the options are not provided with this question, we can still try to answer it by looking at the characteristics that were part of what is known as the "Texas mystique."

The "Texas mystique" refers to a series of myths that arose with the development of Texas. These myths were exaggerated stories about the realities of Texans. Three myths were particularly relevant.

First, the Battle of the Alamo created a mythological view of the war and the role that Texas had in it. The battle was seen as heroic, with many participants being recognized as actual heroes. Second, the Texas Rangers were also presented as heroic characters that engaged in epic battles.
