This isn't your typical Alamo story—discover how Texas operated its own currency, maintained diplomatic relations with European powers, and developed a unique cultural identity that still shapes the Lone Star State today. Thatch examines the complex collision of Native American, Mexican, and Anglo-American cultures that created something entirely new in North American history. From the empresario system to annexation, learn how this brief period of sovereignty continues to influence Texas identity and American politics.
