With independence came the responsibilities of a new nation: creating a government, establishing trade, regulating immigration, and determining its identity as a country. Building this new nation was a huge task led by legendary Texians, including Sam Houston, Juan Seguín, Mirabeau B. Lamar, José Antonio Navarro, and Anson Jones.
