Texas is a CAS state.

History[]

Texas is one of the states who seceded from the UCAS in 2034 to form the CAS. It briefly left the confederation for four months in 2035 because of Atlanta's unwillingness to declare war on Aztlan after the invasion of southern Texas, before asking for reintegration after fighting Aztlan forces to a standstill at Austin.

During the Texas-Aztlan war major landmarks where moved to more northern parts of Texas; most notable among these was the Alamo, which formerly resided in San Antonio and was moved "block-by-block, including a large portion of the land on which it rested" while the Texas Rangers were holding off Aztlan forces. It is now a major attraction at Eight Flags Over Texas theme and amusement park in Dallas/Fort Worth. [1]

Dallas/Fort Worth is the state capital since 2035. Other major cities are Houston, San Angelo, Amarillo, Lubbock, Galveston and Austin. Austin is presently half in Aztlan occupied territory and therefore a divided city. The Aztlan occupied cities in Texas are San Antonio, El Paso, South Padre Island, Corpus Christi, and Laredo.

In March 2062 the earthquake and tsunami that devastated the Yucatán Peninsula carried across the Gulf of Mexico (Aztlan). Corpus Christi, South Padre, Galveston, and Houston were slammed by the tsunami, helping to return southern Texas back to is natural wetland roots.

Politics[]

Due to the economic strength of Aztlan, the CAS enjoys trade relations with Aztlan. While resistant, Texas agrees with the rest of the CAS but maintains its efforts at border protection. Texans as a whole are still very wary of any and all Aztlaner presence.

Historically, Tejanos (Hispanic Texans) have played a large role in Texan independence and in shaping the culture of Texas. Even to this day there is a marked difference between Aztlaners and Catholic Neo-Mexican Americans (Tejanos).

Major Political Parties:

Policlubs:

  • Sons of Alamo: a policlub, that is pushing for an all out war with Aztlan to reclaim Texas.

Education[]

Important schools include Texas A&M University, which added magical studies circa 2026.
