How much do you already know about Manifest Destiny?

Answer 1

Manifest Destiny was the belief in the United States during the 19th century that it was destined to expand across North America, from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. This belief was used to justify westward expansion and the acquisition of new territories, often at the expense of Native American tribes and other nations. This ideology played a significant role in shaping American policies and attitudes towards expansion during this period.
