Merging
editI've merged most of the child articles into this, following the example set by the AfD for Austrian Empire – Republic of Texas relations. The stub articles on relations with countries that did not have embassies in Texas could not be further expanded, and much of the information was already in this article anyway.

Germany
editThis entire section is a fallacy, there was no soveriegn state called Germany until 1866 when the North German Confederation was formed. Before that there was instead dozens of medium and small sized independent states that each conducted foriegn relations seperately. There never was a Germany to conduct any manner of relations with the Republic of Texas during its entire existance.XavierGreen (talk) 18:21, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
- Most of this article and its subarticles was/is incredibly flawed, with sources that didn't match the text, unreliable sources, and a confusion that a consulate existing in the state of Texas today meant that the country had relations with the Republic of Texas 170 years ago. I've begun cleanup but haven't finished. Please remove anything else tha tis just flat-out wrong. Karanacs (talk) 19:41, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
Russia
editThere was a sentence that Russia as an "industrial nation" had recognised the US in 1776. The referenced link clearly stated that Russia did not recognise the US until after the Revolutionary war. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.195.75.161 (talk) 00:02, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
Russia again
editThe article currently states that "Attempting to maintain its relations with the US, Russia recognized Texas as an independent state from 1846 until the annexation of Texas by the United States, which Russia also fully supported." The problem with this is that Texas was annexed by the U.S. in 1845 so an 1846 recognition would have made no sense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.49.171.46 (talk) 22:35, 25 March 2016 (UTC)
American Support
editIn this under bilateral relations it is stated that the United States of America supported Texas in their revolution but this is mostly untrue. The United States and its government refused to send soldiers, weapons, or even food to help Texans. The only “help” that was given was by individuals in America who moved to Texas and joined in helping the revolution. Ultimately the US wanted to involvement with the Texan Revolution out of fears of sparking a war with Mexico. 2601:2C6:480:3E50:F06F:3D4B:10C0:F397 (talk) 01:47, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
