For what it's worth, this Anahuac is not named after anything to do with the local Native Americans. It's the Nahuatl name for the Valley of Mexico. Anahuac, Texas was named by a white American serving in the Mexican army when he established a fort on the site
I don't doubt for a second that the current American government would do what you're describing, but unless I'm missing something (I am not a local to the area or even American) this doesn't seem to be erasing anything to do with the people that lived there before the USA (or Spanish colonisation, for that matter)
Yes. If we ever get another administration that isn't bat shit crazy they will want to restore the old name. However, they'll be reluctant because that'll mean trampling on a little girl's legacy.
