Alaska is the only state in the USA that is larger than Texas.. but it is the largest in the continual continent. An estimated 22,000,000 people live in Texas, which is almost the same population as Australia.
The southern portion of Texas is bordered by Mexico, which has given the state a larger Mexican-American population than most other states. This has created a unique cultural atmosphere in Texas.
Mexican heritage festivals honoring the states are held each year. Tex-Mex food was created in Texas which has all the flavor and spice of authentic Mexican food, with some local variations.
The myths and clichés about Texans don't seem to bother them (that way they get to keep the truth to themselves). Texas is not flat nor does a 10-gallon hat hold 10 gallons of anything, Texas isn't dry and featureless or filled with cowboys on the range. There are no oilmen watching their backyard oil rigs spray up black gold or helmet-haired beauty queens. But it's difficult to dispute the state's image, the scene for 100 Western flicks. The big-sky border of Texas and the West is the classic American picture, the cowboy following his longhorn cattle on long drives. The outlaws who turned their noses at authority (looking at the barrel of a gun) and the gamblers who hit it rich are also part of the imaginary tales of Texas.
