Roots of Manifest Destiny
Social The idea of “Manifest Destiny” became popular in the mid-1800s and put forth the idea that America was destined to stretch from the Atlantic to the Pacific. It was believed this expansion was ordained by God. Immigrants and the urban poor migrated to take advantage of cheap land and new opportunities.

Roots of Manifest Destiny
Economic Because of financial panics and bank failures in the industrial North, many Americans believed they needed to own land for economic independence. Newly developed areas that were not part of the “Original 13” became known as the “frontier” and/or the West. As people began to move west, many pioneers took trails such as the California Trail, the Oregon Trail, and the Mormon Trail.
