Answer 1

I think is C but am not sure

Answer 2

The correct answer is C. Texas did not have any impact during the Mexican fight for independence against the Spanish, because the region was not yet populated before Mexico became independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Texas was a territory colonized by the Spaniards, and was part of the colony of New Spain until the Mexican independence.

Mexico was established as an independent nation with a center in its capital, Mexico City, which was located in the south-central part of the country. Texas, therefore, was a territory far away from large population centers. As a consequence, during the war of independence and the first years of Mexico as a free nation, Texas was not populated. So much so that the arrival of American settlers in the territory was encouraged, which years later resulted in the independence of Texas and its union to the United States of America.
