What was the Alamo?

Texas was originally part of Mexico, but the Mexican government invited Americans in to populate the region. However, "Texicans" eventually took over and fought for their independence from Mexico. The Battle at the Alamo was during the Texas Revolution, 1836, where Santa Anna used a siege and eventually killed all white males who had committed treason. Davy Crockett is associated with the Alamo, he died here.
