Texas was discovered and reclaimed by the Spanish, fought fiercely with the French population, and finally consolidated into a Spanish colony. Mexico took over after independence, and European immigrants poured in in the18th century. Steven Austin took part in the Indian uprising, defeated the Mexican government forces, and established the Republic of Texas in 1836. 1845 joined the United States and became a state. During the civil war, he sided with the south and joined the confederacy.

The flag of Texas is still flying high above Texas. It's not surprising that you can't see the American flag in Texas, but the flags of Lone Star and China will fly forever.

Six flags are hung by public institutions in Texas: the Republic of Texas, the Republic of Mexico, the Kingdom of Spain, the Kingdom of France, the United States of America and the United States of America, representing the history of Texas. These six flags also appear on the emblem of Texas.
