Which turning point would best start an era called "westward expansion"?

History

Hmm, there were several triggering events that promoted westward expansion of the United States.  Victory in war over Mexico (1848) gave the US new lands in the west.  A treaty with Britain (also in 1848) gave the US sole possession of some formerly disputed Oregon territory lands also. Plus, in 1848, gold was discovered in California (land newly in US possession after that Mexican war treaty), so that prodded westward expansion too.  Perhaps those are the initial "turning points" you're looking for. The completion of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1869 sure helped the process as it was underway, as well.

frutty [35]
Opinion or bias can cause the outcome of an experiment to be incorrect because it’s based off of a personal preference. That being said, any desirable outcome can be produced. One example of this would be human reproduction. Let’s say a person of Cuban race wants a mixed child. They would decide not to marry a Cuban spouse because it’s biased that the offspring will be only one race. Therefore, they would marry a person of a different race to provide a desirable outcome, which in this case, would be a biracial child. Bias leans a result toward one side, preferably the result desired. That’s how opinions and biases can cause the outcome of experiments to be incorrect.
