Answer:

The belief that America was destined by God to expand west to the Pacific

Explanation:

The Manifest Destiny was the belief of the American People to continue to expand westward, as GOD gave them not only permission but the right to own the land westward. This doctrine made it so that westward expansion was inevitable, and that anything anything that the American people did in the West was justifiable.

Why was the indian removal act considered to be controvesial?

ivolga24 [154]

The Indian Removal Act took place in the first half of the 1800s under the presidencies of Andrew Jackson and Martin van Buren and directly led to the Trail of Tears, which resulted in the death of many members of tribes in the American South. It was considered controversial because the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the tribes' cause wherein the state of Georgia (which was actively seeking to evict the Indian inhabitants) was told it had no right to force their removal. Nevertheless, the president ordered their removal.
