    I loved the part about how the scheme fell apart. Whatever happened to the good old days of US intelligence?

    "...he drank him under the table."

    a difficult feat to perform against a 1840s German immigrant to Texas.

    I wonder how many Texans are German aristocrats in disguise, even to the present day?

    "From Europe, the Adelsverein had purchased more than three million acres of Texan land. But the group soon discovered it was unsuitable for farming and was occupied by some 10,000 warring Comanche Indians."

    buyer beware!

        When they got here they found out being Texan was far better than being German, and thus no coup.

          I really don't think that venture ever had a snow balls chance since the US would have just declared it a violation of the Monroe doctrine and invaded.

            But, according to the historian, many were wealthy aristocrats and military officers planning to take control of the republic.
            A plot that took 160 years to reach fruition. That's pure genius.

              They probably saw the texan women and decided they didn't want to be Germans anymore.
              It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

                I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                  It was good for both Texas and Germany, because it raised the average IQ of both sides.

                    It would have been grezat if it had worked

                    The "if it hadn't been for us, you'd be all speaking German now" mantra would sure have a great cling to it

                        Rah, we just know how to grow 'em down here in Texas.
