       Is the Alamo American history or is it Texas history that Americans have   
   adopted since Texas became a state?  History books and TV programs/movies   
   seem to portray the Alamo as American history.  But did Texas at that time   
   consider itself part of the U.S.?  Or did they look on themselves almost   
   like another country, separate from the U.S.?  I know the Alamo is part of   
   American history, but is it really a part of American history?  Or did   
   American just take that history over when Texas joined the union?  Hope I'm   
   making sense.
