The conflict between American settlers in Texas and the Mexican government primarily arose due to option **B) Because the settlers were slave owners and Mexico abolished slavery**.
When American settlers, many of whom were slaveholders from the southern United States, moved to Texas, they were in conflict with the Mexican government's 1830 decree that prohibited slavery. This tension over the institution of slavery was one of the key issues that contributed to the Texas Revolution and the subsequent independence of Texas from Mexico.
