The Alamo: It all started when the The Mexicans wanted Texans out of Texas because they felt it was theirs. Then a war started and they started having little skirmishes. The Alamo happened because The Mexicans came to retake their Town post from the Americans. The battle of the Alamo went on for 13 days but in the end they Mexicans one, their were losses on both sides ; David Bowie, Davy Crockett William B. Travis and an estimated 600 Mexicans.After that battle the Mexican president kept messing up and getting distracted and the Americans won because they were more organised and committed.
