What does a journal written by frontier settlers most likely tell you about Manifest Destiny?

Asked by HelgaPirkey

Answer (3)

Manifest Destiny is the god given right to expand. Frontier settlers mostly resided in the West, so it tells you that manifest destiny had occurred, and people were moving west for land expansion in the USA. It occurred throughout the 1840's, but was expressed throughout colonial times. Democrats of the time were fanatics of the idea of Western expansion, and pushed for it through president Tyler and Polk.

Frontier settlers' journals provide insights into Manifest Destiny by illustrating settlers' motivations, religious justification for expansion, and encounters with Native Americans and other cultures. They reflect the belief that it was their God-given right to spread across the continent. These writings highlight both the exuberance of expansion and the conflicts that arose during that era.
