Because it's largely worthless, and it needed to be that big in order to have the approximate value of the other states.

I'm kidding, Texans! Ultimately, the answer is that it's that big because it is. There's no law regarding the size of a state (Texas isn't even the biggest, it's the second largest, after Alaska... in fact, if Alaska were divided into two equal halves, Texas would then be the third largest state).
