8 0

Answer:

Americans, beginning the 19th century, had an idea of "Manifest Destiny" in which they thought they were destined to expand the US to the west coast

The California territory is located near the sea. Acquiring this territory would provide America with:

- safe military defense bordered by the sea

- enough space to built ports so we can make a trading relationship with other countries

What are the differences/similarities among colonnade, peristyle, stoa, and portico? can they be used interchangeably?
enot [183]

A portico is a porch that leads to a building's entrance or is extended as a colonnade, with a roof structure over a walkway supported by columns or enclosed by walls. This concept was popular in ancient Greece and has influenced many cultures, including the majority of Western cultures.

In Greek and Roman architecture a peristyle is a columned porch or open colonnade in a building.

A colonnade is a row of columns spaced at regular intervals in classical architecture, similar to a balustrade. They can be used to support a horizontal entablature, an arcade, or a covered walkway, as well as as part of a porch or portico.
