The California Republic was a breakaway state NOT a sovereign nation with a President, Congress, Court, military, money, etc. and was not recognized by European nations...the Republic of Texas was!
And the California Republic only lasted for a few weeks (June 14, 1846- July 9, 1846)
In fact, one factions of the Republic of Texas favored expanding westward...all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Obviously, they decided to join the US, instead.
The Vermont thing was a precursor the the colonies removing themselves from the English Empire in forming the early United States.
One state that WAS a sovereign nation was the Kingdom of Hawaii but California and Vermont were not the same as theeh Republic of Texas...nice try.
OMG, stop digging so deep. It reeks of insecurity. These "facts" mean nothing today. Maybe you needed to be told that. Do you really think anyone but a Texas fanatic cares about this? Do you really think it has relevance in today's world? It's a huge disservice to Houston, when things like this are posted, as relevant.

I can see your point on California. But Vermont has its own constitution, it’s own currency, and postal service.
It didn’t as long as Texas but it defined itself as a republic before Texas ever did.
Boston, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, and Miami are the next 5
