Tejanos were Texans of Mexican descent. Many Tejanos supported independence for Texas and rejected the rule of the Mexican president, Santa Anna. Santa Anna started as a federalist, which meant he supported the form of government in which the national government and state governments shared power. However, he became a centralist, revoked the Constitution of 1824, and began to rule as a dictator. As a result, Tejanos like Juan Seguín and Lorenzo de Zavala supported Texas independence from Mexico.
