"The recorded history of Texas begins with the arrival of the first Spanish conquistadors in the region now known as Texas in 1519, who found the region populated by numerous Native American tribes. All or parts of Texas were claimed by France, Spain, Mexico, the Republic of Texas, the United States of America - as well as the Confederate States of America in 1861-1865." - texasalmanac.com.
