Texas is a Nation that was established by Declaration of Rights, The Texas Constitution of 1836, and many battles including: the Alamo, the Goliad Massacre, the ultimate defeat of Santa Anna, and a treaty giving the Texas land “to the people forever”.
The Constitution declared Texas a republic with a republican form of government. Essential to such form of government is personal responsibility, personal freedom, mutual respect of others’ rights, private ownership of property, common law, and government that exists to serve the interest of the people; a government which is directly answerable to the people, and is forbidden from creating “statutes and color of law” that deprive its citizens of their property.
