Texas Mission Guide

Between 1632 and 1793, Spanish monks advanced from Mexico to the north towards the current state of Texas where they built dozens of duties and warnings (military forts). The purpose of Franciscan monks is to spread Catholic faith by converting to Indians. These missions were supported by the Spanish colonial government, and it saw it as a means of spreading the influence and territory of Spain.

Many duties, particularly in southern and eastern Texas, have grown to prosperous villages that form the basis of some of the state's most important cities.

In addition, the mission system had a permanent impact on the country. You can see the influence on place names, general Spanish, building materials and buildings, agriculture and crops. The famous cattle industry in Texas was founded by a Spanish missionary who brought cows from Mexico.

Many jobs were abandoned and destroyed. Even the location of some tasks is losing time.

From 1769 to 1823, Spanish soldiers and monks have now established a total of 21 missionaries and five Presidios in this area in California. Learn about California's Spanish delegation and visit the California delegation guide to see California's vibrant delegation

Later, this work thrived in the field of cattle and agriculture. This is the 27th mission in Texas. In Spain the influence of Spain weakened, Mexico took over the mission. The Mexican Roman Catholic Diocese of Guanajuato, Mexico, took over the task of Texas with a few exceptions. The mission was separated from Mexico and started trading with many different Indians, French people, Americans. The father of this mission named the Trinity River "Trinity River" or "St. Trinidad of Rio de Janeiro".

The Spaniards have solved by establishing Catholic mission They established a number of duties in Texas, and they teach native American about Christianity. In 1718, San Antonio established the mission of San Antonio Devalle. That task was later called Alamo. When Mexico became independent from Spain in 1821, Texas was a part of Mexico. In 1825, American Samuel Austin established a colony in Texas. He arrived with about 300 families and settled with the approval of the Mexican government. The colonies grew rapidly, but they also began to have many differences with the Mexican government.

This is the mission of the 18th century Spanish colonial era in San Antonio, Texas. This was one of the most dramatic battles of the Texas Revolution. And the Texans were fighting for the independence of Mexico. All 187 Texan security guards, including Bowie and Crockett, were killed by Mexican generals' Santa Anna Army, but the Mexican army casualties are estimated to be 600 to 2,000. For those who fought to ensure Texas independence, this mission failure became a phone call, and the siege battle on 13th was quickly becoming part of the public mind, the most heroic moment in America It became one of them.
