Remember that when Germany offered to help Mexico retake Texas and several other bordering states in 1917, Mexico declined the offer not only because it couldn’t win militarily, but also because it determined that managing a large English-speaking population within its borders would have been very difficult for them.

Was Texas before it became independent largely english or apanish speaking?

Spaniards first colonized this area in the early 19th century before it broke away from Mexico in the middle of the century; however, by the early 20th century, several generations had passed since Texas officially joined the US, more than enough time for the area to become majority English speaking.
