Answer: Option D

Explanation:

The Texan revolution was quite controversial as there was the division between the Governor and the General Council on the issue that whether they should remain faithful to the constitution or declare their freedom from the Mexico. This division has great impact on the revolution as ultimately the expedition led to the defeat of Texan force in 1836.
