De Facto vs De Jure[edit]

Shouldn't the statement"the Republic of Texas was De Facto a independent country" be replaced with De Jure? 2600:8800:2A0F:F900:959A:EEC3:352E:14A2 (talk) 18:02, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear, potentially superfluous language[edit]

InBackground -> Mexico After Independence, a sentence reads "The Mexican military and the Catholic Church in Mexico, both privileged institutions with conservative political views, were stronger politically than the Mexican state." It is not clear what the words 'privileged' or 'conservative' mean in the context of 1830s Mexico and what relationship that might have to why they were stronger politically. Without additional information (or citation), this statement appears to be more of a judgement than a statement of fact. There is a risk that these words would be interpreted according to their present-day meaning, which may not convey an accurate picture of the relationship between the Mexican military, Catholic Church, the Mexican government, and broader Mexican society. I would suggest one or a combination of the following edits: 1) Add whatever information is needed to clarify the sentence and better connect it to the preceding and following paragraphs, 2) Add a [citation needed] tag at the end of the sentence, 3) Remove the phrase "both privileged institutions with conservative political views" altogether 70.59.137.133 (talk) 00:57, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Texas is misspelled and reads Tejas. Just noticed this because it's a link. Not big, just noticable. 2600:1002:B181:6DAA:58F7:3B97:BF6E:A2EF (talk) 19:52, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted. The Mexican province was named Tejas, and later it was joined with the province of Coahuila to form the state of Coahuila y Tejas. Jeff in CA (talk) 03:44, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
