1824 Tri-color Flag Alamo Flag 1835-1836

The Green, White and Red Tri-color flag with an eagle and snake in the center was the flag of Mexico under the 1824 Mexican Constitution, which granted the people of Texas rights similar to those of U.S. citizens. Texans were willing to remain a loyal part of Mexico as long as the Constitution was honored. When it was breached by Santa Anna, the Texans defiantly removed the coat of arms from the center of the Mexican flag, replacing it with “1824” the date of the constitution. This flag was the first legal flag of the Texas Revolution and the last foreign flag to fly over the state.
