<p>[QUOTE=&quot;K2Coins, post: 1425623, member: 30168&quot;]The Manifest Destiny was known throughout America, beginning in the 1840’s.&nbsp; The Manifest Destiny was believed to show Americans and teach them about the west including Oregon and California.&nbsp; It was used by people who believed that the United States was destined by God to expand America to stretch to the Pacific Ocean.&nbsp;&nbsp; By creating the Manifest Destiny it shows how America is acquiring more land and becoming more powerful as they do.&nbsp; By doing this America would be able to trade more with different nations and have a better route for transport throughout the whole United States.&nbsp; Also by creating this Manifest Destiny, the people will be able to move westward and start a new life stile out there, where there are miles of vast, unclaimed land.&nbsp; The Manifest Destiny used God to make the people believe that they had to have the lad to the west and most people believed that that is what God wanted and told them to do.&nbsp; The people of America moved the Indians and native species away from their homeland in order for them to have what they wanted, the land to the west.&nbsp; The Americans quickly migrated to the west and formed new locations and routes to journey out that way.&nbsp; Overall, the people who believed in God thought that it was right to do this because God said he wanted them to do this.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; With the positive thoughts about the Manifest Destiny there were also negative affects.&nbsp; Because the Americans wanted to have the land they had to move the Indians off of their home land in order to acquire what they wanted, I believe that it was wrong to take the Indians away from their home land just because the Americans believed in what God had told them about the journey west.&nbsp; The Americans also relocated all the Animals that used to live where the Americans wanted to have.&nbsp; Most Americans believed that their journey westward was because God told that they had to reach the Pacific Ocean on form their settlements there.&nbsp; The Manifest Destiny changed the way every American lived and took control, of their lives to gain what they did not have the right to have, the west, and harassed the Indians so that they could get what they wanted.&nbsp; Hope this is good!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
