The Gathering Storm

As Mexico's authoritarian rule tightened its grip on Texas, tensions escalated, fueled by land disputes, cultural differences, and the desire for self-governance. Amidst the rising unrest, Sam Houston emerged as a voice of moderation, advocating for a peaceful resolution.

The Fall and Legacy of the Alamo

On March 6, 1836, the Mexican army stormed the Alamo, overwhelming the heroic defenders. The battle ended in a bloody massacre, with all but a handful of the Alamo Avengers perishing. However, their sacrifice would serve as a rallying cry for the Texas Revolution.
