Answer:

Both concepts are interrelated.

Manifest Destiny is a doctrine that believes that United States has the right to expand accross the continent toward the west, toward the Pacific Ocean, as a design of Providence. Expansionism is a set of policies and actions of territorial acquisition and aggrandizement. These ideas or conceptions drove many of the USA actions and policies in the 19th century, and they were pursued with consistence by different administrations throughout the century. The USA finally reached its goal of extending its territory to the Pacifc shores after defeating Mexico in 1848 and forcing it to cede a huge territory that included California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and parts of Colorado.

6. Why did President Truman remove General Douglas MacArthur from command of the American troops in Korea?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

President Truman removed General Douglas MacArthur, for MacArthur treated the Korean War as another World War, in which he had to destroy his opposition no matter the cost (it being the communist regime, and the weapon being nuclear weapons). Truman, on the other hand, knew of the delicate usage of the nuclear weapons, and if they are used, the USSR will counter. This led to Truman removing MacArthur for rash behavior.

How did cold war tensions affect american society
sammy [17]
The Cold War touched many aspects of American social and cultural life, from the civil rights movement to survivalism, from Hollywood to the universities. The nuclear threat—and the Communist menace lurking behind it—brought the National Defense Education Act, the interstate highway system, and growing mistrust of government by both liberals and conservatives. In ways sometimes blatant, sometimes subtle, the Cold War left its mark on activities ranging from art and poetry to movies and comic books. Sports events became particularly prominent venues for rivalry, beginning with the London Olympics in 1948 and peaking every fourth year thereafter. Visiting artists, traveling exhibitions, and other cultural exchanges, both formal and informal, sometimes helped ease Cold War tensions.
