Who brought American settlers to tejas?

American settlers were primarily brought to Tejas (Texas) by Stephen F. Austin in the early 1820s. He received a land grant from the Mexican government to encourage settlement in the region, which was sparsely populated at the time. Austin recruited families from the United States, promoting the area's agricultural potential and offering land at low prices. This influx of settlers ultimately contributed to tensions between the American settlers and the Mexican government.
