What was trouble at anahuac?

The Trouble at Anahuac, which occurred in 1832, was a conflict between Texian settlers and the Mexican government in the region of Anahuac, Texas. Tensions arose over the enforcement of Mexican customs duties and the perceived overreach of authority by the local Mexican officials, particularly the commander, Juan Davis Bradburn. The situation escalated when Texians rebelled against Bradburn’s actions, leading to a skirmish that highlighted the growing dissatisfaction with Mexican rule among settlers. This event was a significant precursor to the Texas Revolution.
