Answer 2

Answer:

Mier y Terán felt that the Mexican government needed to act quickly or else Texas would be lost. He recommended putting a Mexican political chief in Nacogdoches and sending more Mexican military into the area to reestablish a Mexican government authority. Mier y Terán also felt that Mexico should assume responsibility for the native Americans in Texas and remove that responsibility from the local settlements. He recommended this in order to shift the Native American alliance from the local settlers to the Mexican government. Mier y Terán also recommended that Mexico shift the trade patterns from the U.S. to Mexico so that Texas would be more committed and reliant on the Mexican government. Finally, Mier y Terán recommended that Mexico encourage European and Mexican settlement of Texas in order to even out the population and keep the values and beliefs of Mexican culture strong there.
