    The Battle of the Alamo stands as a pivotal moment in the Texas Revolution and American history. In February 1836, a group of 200 Texian defenders, including iconic figures such as William B. Travis, James Bowie, and Davy Crockett, fortified themselves within the Alamo mission in San Antonio. They faced an overwhelming Mexican force of 6,000 soldiers led by the ruthless General Santa Anna.
    For 13 days, from February 23 to March 6, 1836, the defenders held their ground despite relentless bombardments and attacks. Travis’s defiant cannon shot in response to Santa Anna’s demand for surrender, and his poignant plea for reinforcements, epitomized their bravery and determination. The siege culminated in a fierce and bloody final assault, with Mexican troops breaching the walls in the pre-dawn darkness, leading to intense hand-to-hand combat.
    The Alamo defenders fought valiantly but were ultimately overrun. All 200 Texian defenders perished, their sacrifice becoming a rallying cry for Texian forces. "Remember the Alamo!" became the battle cry that spurred the Texian army to victory at the Battle of San Jacinto, securing Texas independence from Mexico.

    Love to see the cite for there being 200 there. Already very questionable video
