About Texas
Texas, the Lone Star State, is a giant of a state and Texans are known for their large, welcoming hearts. "Friendship" is the state's motto, and the people of Texas live by that motto. The state’s name comes from the word "teysha" meaning "hello friend" in the language of the Caddo Indian tribes.

Texas is a state of superlatives. It leads the nation in total productivity. It is the leading oil producer in the nation, more beef is produced in Texas than in any other state and it is still the nation's largest cotton producer. Texas is a giant in the space industry, and is a major player in high technology. Fittingly, Texas also boasts the largest (gross square feet) of all the state capitol buildings, constructed of 15,000 carloads of pink granite.

Perhaps one of the most recognized nicknames of any state, "The Lone Star State" comes from the symbolism of the star on the 1836 flag of the republic, the "National Standard of Texas." The single golden star on a blue background signified Texas as an independent republic and was a reminder of the state's struggle for independence from Mexico. A pivotal event in the Texas Revolution was the famous Battle of the Alamo. Following a 13-day siege, Mexican troops under President General Antonio López de Santa Anna reclaimed the Alamo Mission near San Antonio de Béxar (modern-day San Antonio, Texas, United States), killing the Texian and immigrant occupiers. Santa Anna's cruelty during the battle inspired many Texians, both legal Texas settlers and illegal immigrants from the United States, to join the Texian Army.

Sulfur, one of the major natural resources of Texas, is a chemical element, bright yellow, crystal line and solid at room temperature. Sulfur is referred to as the element of war and remains one of three ingredients of gunpowder.
