The history of Texas began in 1845 when it joined the Union of The United states of America. The word “Texas” originates from the word “Taisha” meaning “friends” in the Caddoan language spoken by the Hasinai indigenous Indian tribe living in the territory, the state motto is “friendship”
Texas is one of the largest states in the union and everything we associates with the state is BIG, the Rio Grande, the highways, the buildings, the cattle ranches and the big Stetsan hats. Not many people realize that prior to joining the union, there were once many Texases; French Texas, Spanish Texas, English Texas, Mexican Texas and the Republic of Texas.
Texas is often referred to as the “Lone Star state” which stems from the fact that the original state flag had only one star. Today it is known for the oil, President Bush connection, (he was a previous governor) and the Pecan tree which is the state tree symbol, pecan nuts are grown commercially.
Texas is a big, friendly state where visitors are made very welcome with lots of interesting sites to explore. Texas is well connected and easy to get to; Houston airport is one of the largest airline hubs in America with many daily flights and connections to the UK and the world.
