Answer: After taking over power in Mexico, Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna increased tensions in Texas by burning down the town of Gonzales to the ground.

The town of Gonzales was burnt to the ground so that the Mexican army wouldn't derive any gains from it.

This was during the Texas revolution. Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna started this revolution because he wanted to take over power from Bustamante.
