They hunted buffalo and lived in the territory known as Comancheria, which occupied todays west Texas, a part of New Mexico and Oklahoma. In the 17th century they acquired horses and quickly learned horse riding. Having horses meant the Comanche war tactics changed, they soon became masters of warfare, executing their famous Comanche raids under the Comanche moon. When it comes to horse archery they had no equals. Migrating to Texas they came in conflict with the Lipan Apaches which meant that soon a bloody Comanche Apache war took place. Soon war broke out between Comanches and the Spanish colonies, that means the Comanches fought and raided the Mexico territory. After that war broke out between the Comanches and Texas - than being an independent republic. The Comanches raided Texas. In the Great raid of 1840 they raided deep into Texas, sacking the town of Victoria and completely burning the city of Linville. The raid also came close to Austin. That was the biggest raid in history by a Native American war party.
The Comanches, being warlike, fought with their opponents for most of their history, with Quanah Parker being one of their greatest and the last free war chief.\n
