COMPARE/CONTRAST- The Americans travelling to the moon helped us know exactly what was out there. Actual real life people in space and on the moon helped us discover more of space and find the world’s hidden features. Also earth's exploration of space gained us knowledge about space and the moon. For example a moon rock was collected and data was taken about the earth's atmosphere. A difference is the time period of space exploration, it was later in time than when Daniel Boone explored earth.

GLORY- Daniel Boone wanted fame, this is another thing that drove him to keep exploring more land. He wanted to be one of the firsts to find new places and new territories. Daniel Boone discovered the Cumberland gap, one of his exploration findings, a long narrow trail or divot in the earth next to the Cumberland mountains that stretch through Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia. 

COMPARE/CONTRAST- America wanted to be the first country to send people to the moon. We wanted that fame. That is a similarity because both Daniel Boone and America wanted fame. A difference between the moon exploration and Daniel Boone’s ongoing earth exploration is exactly that, one is on the moon in outer space and Daniel Boone explored earth. Another difference is the time period of space exploration, it was later in time than when Daniel Boone explored earth.

Daniel Boone and his people where under attack so he led the defense to protect his land and community. This is bad because they were being attacked, for being allies with the British. This is also good because Daniel Boone led the defense. But in the end Daniel Boone and his community lost and were kicked out of the area/property. 

3. The Louisiana Purchase in 1803 ended his success: Ownership of Missouri was transferred to the United States, and many land titles were challenged -- including Boone’s. For the second time in his life, he lost most of his holdings and became deeply indebted. However, an act of Congress in 1814 restored a portion of his lands. This is bad because Daniel Boone was stripped of his ownership of his land. 

Explorer- Daniel was excited about his finding and his exploration. He fled his country because of war In 1783.  This is a primary source of Daniel Boone's actions in 1775. This is significant because he fled the country of england and discovered the cumberland gap. 
Opposite view- People have believed that Daniel Boone refused to apologize and he then was kicked out of the quakers.  The quakers community threatened death (by decapitation) for Daniel Boone if he didn’t apologize and he didn’t want to so he made his family flee the area with him. This is significant because he was kicked out of the area and had to find somewhere new.  

One place he fled because of war and the other place he was kicked out of, due to rudeness to people of each community.

2. Daniel Boone’s wife Rebecca's butter churn, loom and many kitchen items that the family owned are displayed in their historic home. All these things represent his family and ways they did things in their household. This could have helped in the olden days because daniel boone moved his family here and his wife could have taught people how to make butter and how to loom. Butter churns are no longer needed but looming is present in the future because some people can make their living off of making scarves and hat and gloves. Looming can also be found in present day as a way to relieve stress and be relaxed. 

So in other word expansion was caused by environmental factors, (drought, natural disasters, climate) Population increase (Daniel Boone founded the Cumberland gap and people along the way joined him in his journey to find a better life) , resource availability (amount of food, clothes, resources), etc.
