The defeat at the Alamo in 1836 was significant for Texas because it gave the Texans a reason for fighting for their independence. The small number of Texans that fought the war at Alamo were tortured and killed and this led to a greater stimulus for gaining independence from the rule of Mexico for the Texans.
