What was the Manifest Destiny and the settlement of the West

History
1 answer:
blondinia [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Manifest Destiny was the idea that Americans, that is to say, the United States, had the right to expand to the West, and reach the Pacific Ocean: occupy the lands in between, and spread American values.

It also applies to other parts of the world in a more indirect way, especially Latin America.

The settlement of the West was aided both by economic necessity, because many migrants were arriving in the United States seeking for cheap land, and also by ideology, and the ideology was precisely that of Manifest Destiny.

In the space provided, summarize the case of Gibbons v. Ogden and explain its relationship to the Necessary and Proper Clause in
Tamiku [17]
Hi there!

Because this question has been posted before, I'll post my previous response here.

The case of Gibbons v. Ogden was a landmark Supreme Court case decided in 1824 concerning the power of the states to regulate interstate commerce. This case involved a steamboat owner, Thomas Gibbons, who did business between New York and New Jersey and the then governor of New Jersey, Aaron Ogden. Gibbons argued that the monopoly Ogden had was a violation of the commerce clause of the Constitution and therefore not valid. This proved to be the case. In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court decided that this law conflicted with federal law and the powers the federal government had to regulate interstate commerce. Under the Constitution, Congress has all powers necessary and proper to carry into effect the laws that it passes. This reinforced that clause.
