2. Americans moved west to make a better living. Many believed that there was good life on the frontier, with the biggest factor being the pioneer's opportunity to buy land.

3. In 1784, Thomas Jefferson opposed extending slavery into the northwest territory but instead supported a westward extension because he feared that restricting slavery could lead to civil war and the end of our nation.

4. The Louisiana purchase doubled the size of the US and strengthened it materially and strategically. It provided the means by which Americans could move west and confirmed the doctrine of the Implied Powers. In 1845, the terms Manifest Destiny came into play. It was the idea that the US was destined by God to exert dominion and spread its democracy across North America. Many Americans still believe in this, uh, belief and have led to greediness and unethical answers to taking others' land.

5. Lewis and Clark began their expedition in 1804 when President Thomas Jefferson tasked Meriwether Lewis with exploring lands west of the Mississippi River that comprised the Louisiana Purchase. Lewis chose William Clark as his co-leader for the mission. The accomplishments of the Lewis and Clark Expedition were extensive. It altered the imperial struggle for the control of North America, particularity in the Pacific Northwest. It strengthened the U.S. claim to the areas now known as the states of Oregon and Washington.

6. The War of 1812 was crucial for the United States. It effectively destroyed the Indians' ability to resist American expansion east of the Mississippi River. The United States took on the greatest naval power in the world, Great Britain, and won, having a David vs Goliath-type moment for other countries. The war had a far-reaching impact in the United States, as the Treaty of Ghent ended decades of bitter partisan infighting in government and ushered in the so-called “Era of Good Feelings.” The war also marked the demise of the Federalist Party.
