It;s our own business, no one should "advise" Russia on a question of citizenship.
Remember how you guys annexed Texas from above mentioned Mexico?
Main articles: Texas Revolution, Republic of Texas, and Texas AnnexationThe Convention of 1832 and the Convention of 1833 were responses to rising unrest at policies of the Mexican government. Delegates feared the end of duty-free imports from the United States and the threat of ending slavery.[38] In 1835, Antonio López de Santa Anna, President of Mexico, created a unified constitution for Mexico which created a centralized government with power concentrated in the President, and turned states into provinces with governors appointed from Mexico City.[38] States around Mexico rebelled against this imposition, including Chihuahua, Zacatecas and Yucatan. Of note was the Centralista forces' brutal suppression of dissidents in Zacatecas.[39] Texans also resented policies such as the forcible disarmament of settlers, and the expulsion of immigrants and legal landowners originally from the United States.Republic of Texas. The present-day outlines of the U.S. states are superimposed on the boundaries of 1836–1845Republic of Texas. The present-day outlines of the U.S. states are superimposed on the boundaries of 1836–1845On 2 March 1836, the Convention of 1836 signed a Declaration of Independence.[40][41] On 21 April 1836, the Texans—led by General Sam Houston—won their independence at the Battle of San Jacinto. Santa Anna's capture led to the Treaties of Velasco. Mexico repudiated the treaties and vowed to reconquer Texas. Later in 1836, the Texans adopted a constitution that formally legalized slavery. The Republic of Texas included the area of the present state of Texas, and additional unoccupied territory to the west and northwest.[39]Most Texans wanted their Republic to be annexed into the United States. Events such as the Dawson Massacre and two recaptures of Béxar in Texas of 1842 added momentum to the desire for statehood.[42] However, strong abolitionist opposition to adding a slave state blocked Texas's admission until pro-annexation James K. Polk won the election of 1844. On December 29, 1845, Texas was admitted to the U.S. as a constituent state of the Union.[43] The Mexican–American War followed, with decisive victories by the U.S.[44] Texas's boundaries were set at their present form after the Compromise of 1850. Land which later became half of present day New Mexico, a third of Colorado, and small portions of Kansas, Oklahoma, and Wyoming, was ceded for the federal government's assumption of $10 million of the old republic's debt.[45] Post-war Texas grew rapidly as migrants poured into the cotton lands of the state.[46]
Nope.It's up to respectable Moderators here to ban me.I am the last person to discuss moderation policy here.
Most Texans wanted their Republic to be annexed into the United States.
Invade!?So far we stopped a genocide. Stopped rabid dogs your regime support.
So did South Osetins.What's the problem?...
Show evidence of genocide by the Georgians. Putin saying there was genocide doesn't count. It must be evidence given by a third party.
Russia just broke the truce and is rolling into the georgian capital.
The problem is that the world doesn't work like it did in the 1800's. No country, not even your own recognizes the sovereignity (sp? I think I butchered that one lol) of South Ossetia.You brought up Texas btw, my post was to show the basic history of how Texas became a state, nothing more.
MLRS at the populated city.Georgian TV showed it boasting they "restore order" in S.O.That's where I started this thread.
It was a response to similiar shelling from the Ossetian' side, Boroda. That's what the news' said earlier.
