<span>In 1845, the Republic of Texas was annexed to the United States of America, becoming the 28th U.S. state. Border disputes between the new state and Mexico, which had never recognized Texas independence and still considered the area a renegade Mexican state, led to the Mexican–American War (1846–1848).

I hope this helps!
Good day to you.

Answer:

In 1845, Texas was annexed to the United States.

Explanation:

The Republic of Texas had declared its independence from the Republic of Mexico on March 2, 1836. At the time, most of the Texan population expressed a favorable attitude towards annexation by the United States. Both the leaderships of the two major American political parties, the Democrats and the Whig, opposed this process, since the introduction of a state with a strongly slave imprint could represent a further problem within the arena of heated discussions and pro- and anti-slavery debates within the Congress.

In addition, both wanted to avoid a war with Mexico, whose government had already expressed its willingness to recognize the sovereignty of its northern rebel province. From the 1840s, the economic fortune of Texas was in sharp decline, for this reason the President of the Republic of Texas, Sam Houston, had tried to start talks with the Mexican government to explore the possibility of obtaining independence, with the mediation of Great Britain.

In 1843 the Presidency of John Tyler, not aligning himself with the positions of any of the parties present at the Congress, decided to proceed in a completely autonomous and independent way to the annexation of Texas, with the aim of gaining the popular consent necessary to obtain a re-election to the Presidency. However, his official motivations were to oppose the supposed British policy of releasing slavery in Texas, which would have undermined the entire US slave system.

Through secret negotiations with Houston himself, President Tyler entered into an annexation treaty in 1844. When the documents of the agreement were submitted to the US Senate for ratification, the dictates for the terms of the annexation became public and the question of Texas annexation became a central topic of the election campaign during the presidential elections in the United States of America in 1844.

What happened as a result of J.P. Morgan’s work in the financial industry
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

He saved the American Economy and led to the establishment of the Federal Reserve.

Explanation:

JP Morgan was a businessman with contacts and investments in many different industries. These contacts, and his wealth, allowed him to wield huge control over the financial industry. This resulted in two big events. Firstly, there was the Gold Crisis of 1895. The US Treasury nearly ran out of gold and Morgan persuaded the president to use an old law to buy gold off him (And the rockefellers). This stabalised the American Dollar and averted crisis. A similar thing happened in 1907. Major New York banks were on the verge of collapse and Morgan held a meeting at his mansion where he forced the New York finaciers to come up with a plan. This they diid and the federal government saved the banks. Morgan also used his controlling interest in US Steel to buy the stock of a competitor whos stock was casuing a brokerage firm to collapse. Despite the anti trust legislation he purchased the stock, This restored confidence in the banking system and ensured the crisis was over.

More importantly, the event made the government realise that they couldnt rely on there always being a wealthy indiividual like Morgan to save the day should there be another crisis. This lead to the creation of the Federal Reserve System in 1913. This was a joint effort of a team of banking and political leaders, led by Senator Nelson Aldrich.

marshall27 [118]

If i am right, can i plz get brainiest?

Answer: Signing this document was dangerous. To sign the Declaration of Independence meant that the signers were living on borrowed time. But, freedom meant sacrifice, even the sacrifice of their lives. So, even with the threat of death hanging over their heads, they signed this marvelous and bold document.
