When were the Texas Rangers created?

The Texas Rangers were officially created in 1835. This formation was a response to the need for a organized militia to protect the settlers and to provide law enforcement in the Texas frontier during a tumultuous time, which included conflicts with Native Americans and tensions with Mexico. The Rangers played a critical role in Texas' history, contributing to the state's independence and later becoming a symbol of law enforcement in the region.
