Answer 1

One significant effect of Anglo-American colonization and the State Colonization Law of 1825 on Tejanos and Indigenous Americans living in Texas was the displacement and marginalization of these communities. As Anglo settlers moved into Texas, they often took over lands that had been occupied by Tejanos (Mexican Texans) and Indigenous peoples, leading to conflicts over land rights, resources, and cultural changes. This resulted in a loss of territory, traditional livelihoods, and undermined their social structures, which significantly altered the cultural landscape of Texas.
