After the failed rebellion against mexican authority in texas in 1826, the mexican government took actions that raised tensions with the texas settlers. describe these actions and their effects on the settlers.in 1846

It appears there might be a confusion in the provided information. The Texas Revolution against Mexican authority did not occur until later, starting in 1835 and culminating in the Texan Declaration of Independence in 1836. The rebellion in Texas in 1826 might be referring to the Fredonian Rebellion led by the Edwards brothers, which was not entirely successful and did contribute to tensions.

If we consider the period leading up to the Texas Revolution (1835-1836), several actions by the Mexican government raised tensions with Texas settlers:

1. Centralization Policies:

  - The Mexican government, under leaders like President Anastasio Bustamante, pursued centralization policies that reduced the autonomy of Mexican states, including the Mexican state of Coahuila y Tejas, of which Texas was a part. This centralization was met with resistance from Texas settlers who sought to maintain local control.

2. Abolition of the 1824 Constitution:

  - The Mexican government's abandonment of the Federalist Constitution of 1824, which initially granted states like Texas a significant degree of autonomy, led to discontent among Texan settlers who felt their rights were being undermined.

3. Military Presence:

  - The Mexican government increased its military presence in Texas, deploying troops to assert control and quell any signs of rebellion. This militarization further heightened tensions between the Mexican authorities and Texan settlers.

4. Cultural and Religious Differences:

  - Cultural and religious differences between the predominantly Anglo-American settlers in Texas and the Mexican government also contributed to tensions. The settlers were primarily Protestant, while the Mexican government was Catholic, leading to clashes in values and practices.

These tensions eventually escalated into the Texas Revolution in 1835, marked by events like the Battle of Gonzales, the Siege of the Alamo, and the Battle of San Jacinto. Texas declared its independence from Mexico in 1836, leading to the establishment of the Republic of Texas.

By 1846, Texas had joined the United States, as the Republic of Texas and the U.S. agreed to annexation in 1845. Therefore, by 1846, the tensions were part of Texas's history, and it had become a state within the United States.
