Answer:

The Louisiana Purchase treaty is an important document in the study of Manifest Destiny because the Louisiana Purchase expanded the American territory westward, just as the Manifest Destiny proposed to do.

Explanation:

Manifest Destiny is an American doctrine of the 19th century. It states that the US has a divine mandate to expand, particularly through the mid-19th century Western Frontier to the Pacific.

Manifest Destiny was never just a definite policy or ideology; it was a general term that combined elements of American exceptionalism, nationalism, and expansionism into a broad sense of mission.

Many American pioneers argued that the ideals of freedom and nation were of far-reaching importance and needed to be brought to the new lands by extending the reach of the nation (and its borders). Two centuries earlier, Massachusetts Bay Colony Governor John Winthrop had claimed his colony was the city on the hill and would demonstrate to the rest of the world the way of life of a free, godly society. In continuation of this idea, many argued that it was a divine mandate to extend the US throughout the North American continent.

1.) In exchange for allowing him to live, what did Sulla take away from Caesar?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Well, this is going to be a long answer! I hope I helped, please correct me if I'm wrong!

1. I believe he took Caesar's wife and Cinna’s daughter, in exchange of his life, since research showed that Young Julius Caesar was proscribed for no reason other than he refused to divorce his wife. (I'm not very sure about this)

2. He never married her because Rome, after all, did not recognize plural marriage, and at that time, Caesar was still married to Calpurnia.

3.  Caesar focused on economic changes, like improved land and waterways. His political reforms focused on creating physical structures, rebuilding cities and temples, and improving the Senate, The main ruling body in Rome. (I'm sorry about this one, I'm not very sure which one was most important)

4. The senators assassinated Caesar because they feared his unprecedented concentration of power during his dictatorship was undermining the Roman Republic, and presented the deed as an act of tyrannicide.

5. The death of Julius Caesar ultimately had the opposite impact of what his assassins hoped. Much of the Roman public hated the senators for the assassination, and a series of civil wars ensued.
