Answer:
Explanation:
In 1812, while Britain was focused on its war with France, the same country decided to take advantage of the situation and declare war on the United States. ... By WWI, the USA were supporting its English ally even over against the Germans, who arguably had populations that were almost as big.
Manifest Destiny was the belief that it was the United States destiny to expand throughout the entire the continent. It set the tone for a great deal of expansion of the US territory including Texas and Oregon.
Manifest destiny played a really important role in the expansion to Oregon, which was in dispute with Britain. Thousands of Americans migrated to Oregon in the 1840s over the Oregon Trail. Britain was trying to move the boundary line to include more of present day Washington state but people in support of Manifest Destiny wanted all of Oregon. There was a lot of back and forth on the issue, especially when President Polk was elected. Eventually they settled with only part of Oregon (at the time) because the US was able to enter the Mexican-American War and did not want to fight with Great Britain as well.
Texas was originally owned by Mexico but in 1836 they declared their independence from Mexico and became the Republic of Texas. Then Texas requested to join the US. While the US wanted the land, it was controversial because Texas was place where slaves could be owned and a lot of Democratic politicians in the US government disagreed on the subject. James K. Polk favored the annexation of Texas and when he was elected as president he approved expansion to Texas.
Essentially, Manifest Destiny acted as a platform for people to support expansion to places like Texas and Oregon despite the conflicts they encountered in acquiring the lands.
Because he released him from prison I’m not very sure if that’s the answer but I’m assuming.
Answer:
In the Fred Korematsu case, the US Supreme Court ruled that the internment order <u><em>was constitutional because national defense came first</em></u>.
Explanation:
The Japanese internment of 1942 was a direct result of the attack on Pearl Harbor by Japanese troops. The order was given by Executive Order 9066 that makes it compulsory to put every one of Japanese descent in a particular area, away from the common American people.
The case of Fred Korematsu against the United States was after this order where the former refused to comply with the evacuation. His stance was that the very Order is a direct violation of the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution.
In this case, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the US, stating that the internment was a necessity and was constitutional as it pertains to the security of the nation.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
