Texas is a state located in the southern United States. The state is limited to New Mexico to the west, Oklahoma to the north, Louisiana and Arkansas to the east and Mexico to the south. Texas was colonized by the Spaniards and belonged to Mexico after its independence in 1821. The intense migration of Americans to the region sparked a wave of pro-recession movements, which resulted in the creation of an independent republic of Mexico in 1836. Nine years later the region was incorporated into the American territory.

The State has always been marked by the contrast between the northern region, favored by the climate and water resources, which made agricultural development viable, and by the southern, arid and desert region. It was in these regions of difficult agricultural development that cowboys emerged, men who took care of cattle and who defended the lands against indigenous attacks. Cowboys have become one of Texas’ biggest symbols.
Of all the continental states, Texas is the largest of them, with an area of 696,241 km². It is also the second most populous, second only to California. Texas’ climate varies by region. In the extreme south of the state, for example, the climate is tropical; the northern region has a temperate climate and milder temperatures.
Texas has the third largest economy in the United States; only the states of California and New York have a higher GDP. The State’s economy is quite diverse, with emphasis on the oil and aerospace industries, something quite different from what was seen in the early 20th century, when agricultural activity was predominant.
The main cities in Texas are Houston, Dallas and Austin. The state capital is Austin.
