Slavery was a significant point of conflict between American settlers and the Mexican government because, after gaining independence from Spain, Mexico abolished slavery in 1829. Many American settlers who migrated to Texas, attracted by land grants, brought enslaved people with them, directly contradicting Mexican laws. This tension over the institution of slavery contributed to growing dissatisfaction among settlers, ultimately leading to the Texas Revolution and the subsequent annexation of Texas by the United States. The differing views on slavery highlighted the broader sectional tensions that would later escalate into the Civil War.
