Pastry War: Encyclopedia II - Texas Revolution - Revolution Begins

Revolution started when the Mexican state of Zacatecas revolted in 1835, against Santa Anna, under the banner of Liberalism. The revolt was brutally put down and civilians, by the thousands, were massacred. This was to become a disturbing tendency Santa Anna would employ on those he regarded as traitors. Now, he ordered his brother-in law and General, Martin Perfecto de Cos, to march into Texas and to put an end to disturbances against the state. See History of Zacatecas. See also:
