MANIFEST DESTINY. The belief in American History that we have the right to expand our national borders from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean.
This was our topic today. We did a lot of stuff: we analyzed an article by John O'Sullivan on the merits of manifest destiny. We analyzed a photo that is the epitome of manifest destiny. We also began looking at just how America expanded her territory from 1803-1854. If you need any of the notes or the chart, see the documents section of the website.
