Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Texas holds the rare distinction of having an independent republic before being an American state. Originally, Texas was a northern territory in Mexico, where white Americans were allowed to settle as a way to increase the population. The first major group of Americans into Texas were led by Stephen Austin.
