About Texas... Texas is a state in the South Central United States, called the Lone Star State. It is bordered by Mexico to the south, New Mexico in the west, north, Oklahoma, in northeast Arkansas, and Louisiana in the east. Texas is the second largest U.S. state in both area and population, with an area of 268,820 square miles, with a growing population of 24.6 million inhabitants. Houston is the largest city in Texas and fourth largest in the United States, while the Dallas - Fort Vrijednost Metroplex is the largest metropolitan area in the state and fourth largest in the nation. Other major cities include San Antonio, El Paso, and Austin-the state capital.

Texas contains a diverse landscapes, like the places and the Deep South and Southwest. Traveling from east to west, one can observe the piney woods and semi-forests of oak and cross timbers, rolling plains and prairie, rugged hills, and at the end of the desert in Big Bend. The phrase "everything is bigger in Texas" derives partly from the state crack latitude and open spaces and its desert prairie regions. Because of its long history as a center of the American cattle industry, Texas is connected to many around the world with the image of the cowboy.

Historically and culturally, Texas is usually considered part of the American South. However, the Spanish and Mexican roots, and the topography of the southwestern and vegetation mainly west of Fort value for Corpus line, it may also be classified as part of the American Southwest. While residents acknowledge these categories, many claim an independent "Texan" is replaced by regional identity labels.

The term "six flags over Texas" comes from several countries that have claimed the territory. Spain was the first European country to claim the territory of Texas. France held a short lived colony in Texas. Mexico owned the territory until 1836 when Texas won its independence, becoming an independent republic. In 1845 she joined the United States as the 28th country. State annexation helped start the chain of events that led to the Mexican American War in 1846.
