Answer:
C)Mexico banned slavery, but did not enforce this law in Texas.
Explanation:
In 1823, Mexico forbade the sale or purchase of slaves and required that when they reached 14 the children of slaves be freed.
In 1829 Mexico abolished slavery, but Texas was granted an exception until 1830. That year Mexico made the importation of slaves illegal. Slave owners started calling slaves indentured servants to go around this law when coming into Mexico. In 1832 the state passed legislation that prohibited the making of worker contracts that lasted more than 10 years.
