On January 8, 1815, the United States victory over the British at the Battle of New Orleans symbolized American democracy triumphing over European ideas of aristocracy and entitlement. This battle had a significant impact on Texas history by freeing Americans to expand westward, setting the stage for the annexation of Texas.
