What is Texas Annexation: Key Events of 1845 about?

In the 1830s, American settlers in Texas outnumbered Mexicans and fought for independence, leading to the establishment of the Republic of Texas. Despite initial reluctance from the U.S. Congress due to concerns over debt and slavery, the political landscape shifted with the election of James Polk, who supported annexation. Texas was ultimately annexed on March 1, 1845, just before Polk took office, and became part of the United States in December of the same year.
