But It Is not In the matter of size alone that Texas Is unique. She Is the only one of the 43 states who was an Independent republic before ahe Joined the sisterhood of Sfntea.

For Texas Is the only one w hlclf ever had the right, to subdivide itself Jnto several states If It chose Jo do so. for the The treaty of annexatloa,.rovlded future formation In the said territories of at least two states, and If more than two, then four states, and If more than four then six states, to be hereafter admitted Into the United States of America." The reason for this wording lay In the slavery dispute which was beginning to become acute at that time. If the new state was to be divided, there should be an even number, half slave and half free so that the balance of War Bepower would be kept even. Since the tween the States ended forever the question of slavery It also virtually ended the possibility Texas being subdivided, although many believe that the Lone Star state still has that right Not only did that war put an end to one of fhe factors which made Texas unique but It als added another to the number of flags which have flowA ovor Texas.
