Answer:

Mariano Vallejo

Step-by-step explanation:

he was the general of the Mexican army and accepted his surrender. For the next 25 days, California was an independent nation known as the California Republic. Known as the Bear Flag Revolt, (a reference to the short-lived republic's flag), this event was something between an American invasion and a miniature war of independence.
