In the words of Davy Crockett after losing a congressional race in his home state of Tennessee, "You may all go to Hell and I will go to Texas"
Currently there's not much difference in temperature
Michael Hill of course he meant Hell, Michigan
killed a bar when he wuz 3
Precisely.
Is there a difference at all?
It's amazing how you told this story in 15 minutes when my 4th grade teacher couldn't do in a whole year
You don't even know what I did in 15 minutes yet. The last 10 minutes could be me making helicopter noises
If it's not, I'll be disappointed.
My 4th grade teacher got to the Texas Republic then essentially blew raspberries for about a month
Usually is cause the Texas revolution has two different histories, the one written by southeners and the actual story, and in the south teachers must cover both which makes teaching this period a convoluted mess.
Also he didn't talk about Steven F Austin and his dad which was part of the whole thing
Little does the world know, the key to our victory was secretly Whataburger. We bribed Mexican officers to give up their vital and essential military secrets to us with fries and cheeseburgers.
No. It was obviously the superior prices at HEB that bribed the Mexican officers. Whataburger convinced Santa Anna to surrender.
See? True Texans know their history, lol
The AI Thick and Hearty is coming back soon. Source: am whataburger worker
Whataburger is the secret weapon. Though don't forget about Shiner Bach
The real reason why Santa Anna surrendered is because he found out we had Chuck Norris on our side!!!!
*Flashes back to 7th grade Texas History*
No
Ayyyyyy
Oof I'm watching this because. 7th grade history homework jinkies
Hell yeah
Ayyyyyyy
Can you believe this guy? Flat out calls himself “brilliant” at the start of the video.
Are you serious? Sorry my mental issuses can't tell if you are being serious
Kekster Gaming No worries, as someone with Aspergers I understand. This comment was not serious.
Kekster Gaming How could you possibly think he was being serious?
Raging Sodomite Wow, that’s ridiculously insensitive.

I live in Seguin Tx and go to college in Gonzales. Gonzales even has the cannon and "come and take it" on their police cars😂.
I don't think you're allowed to take police cars.
Feature History That was my first thought when I saw it. Challenge accepted 😎.
Great video like always btw!
our Bellville Brahmas used to always play Seguin in Gonzalez, kick ass BBQ over there.
goddamn thats some fall off the bone shit! i wish i could remember the name.
Noah Hill Hey, I used to live over there and play football back in middle school. I can safely say y'all have a great HS football team lol.
We have a few places, Luling, right beside Gonzales has some great spots!
A battle cry for the NRA.
I live in the small town in East Texas named Crockett. It’s named after him because it’s the last place he settled before going off to fight and die at the Alamo. His log cabin is still up! And on the square.
The Alamo was a slaughter for Mexico too. About a third of the besiegers were killed in the battle.
Carl Bates it was like 800 dead. The cannons destroyed them
The total force that attacked the Alamo was about 1,800 men, so that’s actually well over a third.
Carl Bates not really 300 or 400 died the rest of the casualties were wounded
@@carlbates9110 If I remember correctly, most of the Mexican casualties were veterans too
I once read somewhere (and I’ve tried to find it again but couldn’t; I’ll provide a llink if I ever find it) of a guy who did extensive research on the Alamo, and he was able to find Mexican medical records of the Mexican casualties. According to the records, around 60 Mexicans died in the final attack. Due to inadequate medical supplies, a great many of the wounded later died, bringing the total death toll to 150 Mexicans killed. This is a little bit less of the number of Texans that were killed, but it doesn’t include the wounded. The Texans still inflicted more casualties on the Mexicans. So, in conclusion, the Texans inflicted around 300-400 Mexican casualties, 150 of which died.

Gone To Texas
Hello, Mexican here! Great video. I just want to thank you for an outsider perspective on this event.
Currently I'm taking some classes about the USA history and politics and I want to be as unbiased as possible. I'm relieved to see that really there's no much difference between this version and what is taught on Mexico, because when I started with my studies I supposed that maybe some things wouldn't explicitly be taught in american schools (for example, that plenty americans illegally immigrated, or that one of the causes for the Texas revolution was the abolishment of slavery in Mexico).
On the other hand, I'm also seeing a lot of comments about how mexicans would be enraged about the situation but, even though I can't speak for everyone, generally that's not the case. Rather than blaming americans, we see Santa Anna as the bad guy here, because, as shown in the video, he really was a dictator in a country that was just consolidating and had internal problems.
This topic in particular is one that really fascinates me, because I see it as the main event to understand the Mexico and USA history of discontent that still shows in today's social and political climate. Despite this, I believe that there's really not reason to continue with it. Sure, I know americans can point out plenty of problems with my country that affects them, as we can do the same. But recently, we have more reasons to work on them together rather than playing the game of blaming and vilifying each other.
I'm really hopeful for what the future awaits for us, and that the relation between both countries turns out for the best.
José Díaz Morales My North American brother, I hope you are right. And I wish Lopez Obrador and all of you the best of luck.
James Baker thanks, and yes, here the political ambient couldn't be better, with AMLO, agree or not with his political views, there's no denial that people are participating and getting more involved in the democracy of the country, and plenty, especially the youth, are eager to work more than before to make an improvement. Also wishing the best for the US!
José Díaz Morales Fix your country first by removing th corrupt head of states and killing the cartels and you have a deal.
ZekeTheViking I mean, it's not like we don't want to/we're not trying
Well said. Have a thumbs up from a fellow Mexican.
Alright before too many corrections get spammed in the comments let me get on top of that.
CORRECTIONS AND DISCLAIMERS:
0:28 - I said Mexico but drew New Spain; realised this in production, was just too lazy to fix
8:18 - Not actually the Texian Flag at the time, was adopted in 1839; Chose to use it for its iconic nature.
8:41 - Comamnd; a classic Feature History typo
13:03 - There was a few presidents between Houston's first and second term; just didn't think it was too important to mention them.
1:44 - Florida belonged to Britian after the Seven Years' War, Spain only got it back after the American Revolution
8:41 comamnd (sorry, had to point it out)
Feature History Filibusters sound a little too much like the Russians in the Donbass War
You also said lieutenant wrong.
No I didn't.
Goliad is pronounced "Goal-e-add"
"Wish I was back in Texas,: The ocean's no place for a squirrel"
Omg I cannot explain to you how much better you are than my Texas History teacher. You explained a whole unit in 15 minutes, rather than like 3 weeks of me not learning anything. You are a legit life saver 😩
“Colonial Travis, Davis Crocket, and 180 more. Captain Dickinson, Jim Bowie, present and accounted for.” Ballad of the Alamo
Great song
Santa Anna was found and captured wearing an infantryman's uniform. While being "processed" by the Texians, a Mexican soldier recognized Santa Anna, and immediately started bowing and apologizing for losing. This is how Santa Anna was captured. His legacy is that of a little coward puto.
Interesting fact: Texas has one of the largest state constitution in the US with 483 amendments.
Every time the U.S. made a new (contradictory) law, we had to change ours. In fact, most southern states have over a hundred and many have been re-written a few times.
We only have that many amendments because the Texas Constitution is designed to make amending super easy, barely an inconvenience.
I've got a commenter who's been asking for the Texas Revolution for most of a year now - I'll have to send him your way because this was way more than I could ever accomplish. Awesome job!
I’m from Austin, TX born and raised, thank you for the video on our state’s unique history. I love all your videos, keep up the great work!
San Antonio local here. Every March 2nd, we do celebrate Texas Independence day and on the 6th there's always something honoring the fall of the Alamo. They are actually still finding things at this site. The location it's at now isn't actually where it originally was during the Texas revolution. It's currently being renovated. San Antonio itself recently celebrated it's 300th birthday a few years ago. Also SA's biggest event, Fiesta is a celebration about Texas independence. It's always in April (this year it got postponed to November) so it can be close to March 2nd.
I’m also from San Antonio. Everything you said is correct. The Fiesta Parade is actually to honor the Alamo defenders (at least what I was taught in school xD)
As a Texan who lives in San Antonio you do gods work with teaching us the history
Capitalize God.
Now do the Mexican battle royal that is the Mexican revolution
Which resulted in today's corrupt Mexican government.
Marc The Vegas Gamer If only it was so simple and linear, chief
That's actually the best way to describe Mexican Revolution I've ever read
2,000,000 ded
The Mexican Revolution has more main characters die than Game of Thrones.
you forgot the part where Santa Anna was captured wearing a privates uniform and pretended to be one of his aids, but then his own men recognized him, and started shouting "Viva Santa Anna!" and "El Presidante!" and then they recognized who the had captured.
People from other states often wonder why Texans have such a strong sense of independence and this video is a good example as to why. Houston has a statue of Sam Houston riding a horse pointing out in the distance toward San Jacinto. Not the most exciting place to visit but it does harbor the Battleship of Texas & the tallest stone monument in the world.
Yes sir! Texas pride dies hard! I am proud I was born less than a mile from where my ancestors made a final stand for our independence! Texas is a wonderful place full of wonderful people but we get a bad wrap for being proud of our heritage. We may not have fought the strongest empire of all time to gain our independence but we showed that our spirits will never be crushed. We will fight and die (if we have to) for our land. I honestly think it's the fact that we refuse to completely assimilate to the American pride that really bothers most Americans and thus all the hate.
@@TheDragonBloom I always laugh when I see Mexicans in TH-cam comments demanding Texas back. Like Texas would ever do so willingly…
No state in the entire union has more state pride than Texas. Hell, we love our state so much that we have waffle makers in the shape of Texas!

Copy & Paste + more revolt and slavery sprinkled in, lol! Great work mate.
A Moye you know thats the Chilean flag right.
tell me your joking with the chili cheesedog flag?
A Moye finished school when he was 6 to pursue his cousin. Leave him alone...
Matthew Poole Clearly a person who has never been to Texas.
at 8:54 you show the Alamo, with it's iconic top, but that wasn't added till after 1910.
The red flag means a declaration of hostile intentions, the black flag on the other hand does mean no quarter or surrender will be given or taken.
I thought Black Flag means "Hot weather or extreme heat temperatures"😁
Then i shall carry only that one into battle.
@@carlosa7598 you mean Texas right now?
You left out Stephen F. Austin. He was one of the first to get a land grant and I believe got it from Spain just prior to the Mexican Revolution.
Actually, his father (Moses) did as an Empresario but died and SFA led the "300" to Texas. Very interesting the sotry of his family of the highs and lows - SFA was Teas's first real statesmen navigating the Mexican government as well as the American settlers.
Just remember, feature history is a teenage high school drop out from Australia. And yet, his content is fantastic
Finally someone does a Texas revolution vid that is down and straight to the point 🔥🔥🔥👌
No fuck Texas Viva Mexico
@@theonedog6272 People like you are a shame to Mexican people
@@theonedog6272 Su opinión no fue requerida; tiene derecho a ello, por supuesto, pero sus medios para expresarlo demuestran que desea ser ofensivo y agresivo. Esto no ayuda a nadie.
We were taught in Texas History class that the Mexican Army numbered closer to 3,000-4,000 at the Alamo. The story we learned was that they originally showed up with a smaller force (like the 1,800 you mentioned in the video) and then were reinforced up to the larger number.
I was taught just under 5,000 in school. Fellow Texan here.
The original battle of bexar consisted of General Cos having approximately 650 men and was pushed from the Alamo and the town by the Texans. A few months later an advance guard arrived to retake the town and fortress believed to be 1500-1800 in number. This number is what started the siege of the Alamo. A few days later the remaining Mexican forces arrived en mass with Santa Anna bring the total number believed to be 5000-6000. This number tough would shrink as he sent detachments of troops out from Bexar to cut off resupply, and reinforcements from trying to reach the Alamo as he did believe that Sam Houston would come to their aid. The final assault on the Alamo is believed to be in the number of 3500-4000. Coming in various waves of assault. Travis was killed on the north wall at the outbreak of the final assault, Bowie died in his bed, more than likely oblivious to the carnage raging around him and to him. Crockett is a different story. Susanna Dickinson testified that he died feet away from his post at the picket line in front of the Church. Others say he was captured and executed. Joe, Travis slave said that he witnessed his death by being over ran by Mexicans and bayoneted to death in front of the church during the battle. I tend to believe Joe and Susanna as their story makes the most sense in the chaos of battle. The majority of Mexicans would not have taken the time in the dark to know who exactly they were fighting and killing and chaos reigned. There also is no heroic grand last stand story attached, just that he fought and was killed. The Mexican version of the events seem very political in nature used almost as propaganda to encourage the troops of the defeat of such a legendary figure.
@@garrettcarter6076 the guys above us must be older I graduated highschool only three years ago and this is what I was taught living in Texas in 7th grade
@garrett carter The Mexicans assaulted the Alamo with about 1500 troops keep in mind that there really around 200 Texans in the fort at most so any more soldiers would have been overkill. There were around 5000 mexican soldiers in total throughout all Texas but they were spread out remember there was another battle in Goliad and other settlements were occupied by the Mexican forces simultaneously also.
As a proud Texan, I enjoyed this video about our War of Independence. I must dispute that our Constitution was essentially a cut and paste of the United States Constitution. There are similarities, obviously, as the great majority of the people of Texas and the delegates to the Constitutional Convention were former Americans. However, there are a number of differences between the two, as well. The Lone Star Republic took pride in being her own nation. Annexation to the US was not a foregone conclusion, nor was it necessarily the path everyone wanted to take. From the start, the population was evenly divided on the question. President Sam Houston carried us into the annexation 10 years later pretty much on the strength of his personal popularity. All these years later, Texas independence is still talked about with regularity. Nonetheless, great video, as always. Please keep the outstanding videos coming and God bless you, my friend!
Bro, my college professor didn’t do even close to a good job like you did in this video, I learned more watching this then I did all year in that class. Watching your videos helped me pass many tests so I appreciate the hard work brother
Personally I love independence wars and militias and such beating back overwhelming forces. If you haven't already, it'd be fun to hear about Haitian independence, or maybe the German Peasents war, or the Finnish winter war! Maybe even the souix wars or boxer rebellion?
If you want wars which include beating back overwhelming forces, i recommend watching his Soviet-Afghan war video.
You were mistaken when you said that Sam Houston alone served as the President of Texas until annexation in 1845. In reality, David G. Burnet served March 16, 1836 - October 22, Sam Houston from October 22, 1836 - December 10, 1838, Mirabeau B. Lamar from December 10, 1838 - December 13, 1841, Sam Houston, again, from December 13, 1841 - December 9, 1844, and finally Anson Jones from December 9, 1844 - February 19, 1846 (I know this is already addressed by you in another comment, but I believe it's somewhat important as I explain in the next paragraph).
It's also wrong to state the Texas basically existed "in limbo" until it was annexed by the US in 1846. While it was likely that a vast majority of Texans supported annexation, notable efforts were made by Mirabeau B. Lamar to maintain independence. These efforts included seeking recognition of independence from major European powers, such as Great Britain and France, asserting territorial claims through the 1841 Santa Fe Expedition, which aimed to bring New Mexico into the Republic of Texas, and, most importantly, his withdrawal of Texas's offer of annexation in 1838.
While you got details wrong, I still believe the video is great work.
tl;dr: the Republic of Texas had 3 other presidents than Sam Houston during it's existence, and the 3rd President tried hard to keep Texas independent. Otherwise, great video.
Lamar is also significant because he undid a lot of Sam Houston's efforts to intergrate or at least make peace with the Indians. Sam Houston lived with a Cherokee tribe in Tennessee for some time and this had an impact on his politics.
Americawinsin1945 yea, I’d have to agree that Mirabeau “Kill’em All” Lamar did do a lot to hurt natives.
On a side note, I am somewhat disappointed he didn’t go into detail on Houston’s background, considering he was a complete bad ass.
Dylan Harris SOMEONE FINALLY RECOGNIZED BURNET!!!!!!!!!!
Funny thing is, someone that does SFM videos on TH-cam named their channel "Mirabeau Studios" after the President.
Yes, in fact, the building that was the Texas Embassy in London is still in London to this day. It is now used as a "Texan food" restaurant, I believe.
My three years of Texas history in school finally comes in handy!

@Kalev Bischof WeißDr Pepper you mean😂
Great work as always! I love that you focus on less well known conflicts and explore new territory instead of going over the same stuff that's been covered a thousand times by a hundred other channels. Have a like.
Feature History, you are the best history teacher that has a lot of detail into certain histories of certain nations or something, so much understanding within such a short time! This is amazing honestly, I can learn about the First Opium War within some minutes or something!
This was good, man. Very much right down the middle (not too lefty and not too righty), but I can't believe you left out the "Victory or Death" letter from Travis, that was a big deal
“Let’s do this Texas style”
I’m a simple man, I see Feature History I click and like it.
And with their pickup trucks, beer bottles, and bibles, the Texans drove de Santa Ana's army from their homeland, tactics that would later resurface when used by the Chadians to kick the Libyans out of their land.
Oh wait, that never happened.
Cyrus Tha Great or did it?
"Or were the fields of San Jacinto visited by extraterrestrials from outer space?"

I'm pretty sure that actually did happen with the Chadians in 1986.
Yeah it did, that was what inspired me to make this comment, combined with southern stereotypes.
Yet? No, that was definitely intended to be a "yeah". I knew beforehand about Chad's Toyotas, that was the joke.
This video came out just in time for my road-trip to the Alamo! Thanks! Great video

I'm a Texan so any time I see a video about the revolution I'm going to watch it but there are things you left out, like how you made it sound like we only had one president when we actually had three. I'm not saying it's a bad video because I thought it was awesome it's just there's a couple things I would add but still it was excellent seeing something I have a lot of pride for on this channel
Great video! Love the graphics!
Great vid! I just finished the History Channel video on the Texas Revolution and it was pretty bad, so it's good to find a comprehensive video soon after
Wonderful. I have my history final, and my history teacher literally DOES NOT teach. We just read the books ourselves. The only times he teaches are after a test and he goes “I should’ve taught you guys this before because you all missed this problem.” He says it with the most unbothered tone. 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
You should the Mexican-American War next
.. if that can be called a war..
Yeah that was a joke
This video was amazing bro keep up the great work can’t wait for future episodes and I hope you make a episode about the Mexican-American War.
hey nice video man, im a mexican texan living in the lower valley near el paso, im really proud and love texas im just embarassed and ashamed of the history concerning slavery and joining the csa, anyways love the video man, im glad someone finally covered texas on youtube.
The real question: who was the dumber leader at the Alamo? Jim Bowie and William Travis for encamping in a defenseless, strategically unimportant fort? Or Santa Ana for attack said fort and losing nearly a third of his men in the process?
Santa Anna he had the bigger force and could have besieged it and starved them out. Maybe even baited a trap for the Texas army. But instead he rushed the walls took bad losses and created a symbol of defiance.

The US: *seizes land from indigenous population; sells it for low prices* "This is fine."
*someone seizes land from Americans settling it*
The US: "It's treason, then."
“So you’ve chosen death”
Mainly the US Military and lack of real control on how people were taking land, espically with how my Country's Goverment never though to just make the Native Americans citizens
Is what made the Western Expansion so messy
I mean that is technically treason. Lol
From my experience as someone raised in Texas every year in every history class you are told that Santa Anna was captured dressed like a lady attempting to escape, and his men ended up ratting him out because of how cowardly they saw the act.
He was dressed like one of his foot soldiers.
He was outed when another soldier recognized him and saluted him.
Thanks for teaching me what my History teacher glanced over!
I’ve been waiting for this, here in San Antonio
I recommend checking out the 2004 Alamo movie. It unfortunately flopped at the box office and it's highly underrated.
It's the most accurate depiction of the siege & battle of the Alamo. Also very good in capturing the real character of Bowie, Crockett & Travis as real human beings & not larger than life heroes as shown in previous films

Confederate Blayre Yiihaa Partner?
Love the art style.
I'm here because I'm a Texan and love Texas. Carry on.
We need a full video on Santa Anna himself, he was quite a character in Mexican history. Both a hero and a villain, a man of courage and a coward, one of respect and one to be ridiculed.
I enjoyed this, but there's one nitpicky thing: the story that Crockett was captured came from one man who didn't know him, and required that he crossed a compound filled with Mexican troops. The more rational story that he died at post not makes more sense--no miraculous trip across the fort--and is supported by multiple people who knew him.
Hey, this is pretty brilliant!
As a born and raised Texan you made me proud. Great vid!
I love your drawins! keep up the good work, greetings from Mexico
