History!!Spanish conquerors first arrived in the region now known as Texas in 1519, finding the region populated by various Native American tribes. During the period from 1519 to 1848, most parts of Texas were claimed by six countries: France, Spain, Mexico, the Republic of Texas, the U.S.A. as well as the Confederate States of America in 1861–65
