Question

Which statement best describes a reason related to foreign policy that caused many Texans to support annexation?

Answer 1

Answers A and B seem to be the most accurate of answers to this question, but if I had to give you one answer it's probably A. When Texas was its own country, there were only two presidents, Houston and Lamar. Houston was president twice, but during Lamar's presidency he ended up putting the Republic of Texas in huge debt. I know once the US Annexed Texas, Mexico declared war on the US. In fact, many people didn't support the annexation of Texas because they were afraid it would start a war with Mexico. So I don't think B is the answer here. A is probably the best answer to this one. 

Sorry if this seems so scattered. I learned this stuff in the 7th grade, and that was 5 years ago. It's been awhile, and I've moved out of Texas since then. I hope my answer helps you.
