Spain offered land in Texas to American settlers after the United States dropped its claim to the area in order to populate and develop the region, which was sparsely inhabited. This strategy aimed to strengthen Spain's hold on Texas and mitigate potential threats from other nations, particularly Mexico. By attracting settlers, Spain hoped to create a loyal population that could help defend against encroachment and promote economic growth in the territory.
