The Texas Revolution in many ways resembled the revolt of the British colonies...in 1775-1776. Both Texas and the colonies were remote from the central authority. Both during their early years were ignored by a government concerned with other matters. Both regions were permitted to exercise local self-government, defend themselves, build...social institutions on their own...Trouble came in each case only when the central government began to insist upon taxation and collection of customs.
