How did the concept of Manifest Destiny relate to the Puritans?

1 answer:

5 0

<span>The Manifest Destiny’s theoretical foundations behind the conception date back to the first Puritan colonists, such as John Winthrop, and his group’s clear desire to build a Shining City on a Hill or a new Jerusalem. The concept that America and its Puritan creators had an ethical right and responsibility to originate a purer, better world informed the idea of what came to be known as “American Exceptionalism,” which is certainly an extension of Manifest Destiny. Both terms indicate that by its very nature, and because of its establishment and ideals, the United States has an ethical purpose to rule the western hemisphere and to plan its supremacy, power, and values transversely the continent, by force if required.</span>

What were the two primary reasons for Polk wanting the land for the United States?

Sliva [168]

Answer:

While the public's fear of foreign involvements in continental North America may have concurred with Polk's agenda, the war he fought against Mexico that began in May 1846 and concluded in February 1848 sparked widespread criticism throughout political, journalistic, and literary circles in addition to strong support. Following the annexation of Texas, the Mexican government had severed diplomatic relations with the U.S. Polk subsequently sent an envoy, former Louisiana congressman John Slidell, to Mexico to try to resolve disputes over the Texas boundary and over damages that the Mexican government owed to U.S. citizens but could not pay. Polk instructed Slidell to make an offer that the U.S. would pay off Mexico's debt in order to acquire "Upper California and New Mexico" and would spend as much as $40 million to purchase the land.
