It allowed Americans to share their culture.
It gave us the motivation to finally explore westward. ]]> 2018-11-02 01:05:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mben7581/oflqh0ln4w0h/wish/299639788 mben7581 https://padlet.com/mben7581/oflqh0ln4w0h/wish/299639904 It brought war and conflict with other countries who already owned this land. 
It lead to a lot of death especially among Native Americans.
It used the name of God or the Divine Providence to manipulate other people.]]> 2018-11-02 01:06:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mben7581/oflqh0ln4w0h/wish/299639904 mben7581 https://padlet.com/mben7581/oflqh0ln4w0h/wish/299642579 Without this idea of Manifest Destiny the US would be so different. Half of the US would still be owned by other countries or maybe even undiscovered. Many of the luxuries we take for granted today wouldn't be available due to the lack of trading. We also 
wouldn´t have access to many of the natural resources that we utilize every day. It´s hard to imagine what daily life in the US would be like if this idea never came about so I believe it was a good thing. ]]> 2018-11-02 01:19:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mben7581/oflqh0ln4w0h/wish/299642579
