The correct answers are A) It accelerated migration to the West Coast and D) It added an additional slave state to the country.

The discovery of gold in California impacted western expansion in that it accelerated migration to the West Coast and it added an additional slave state to the country.

After the United States purchased the Louisiana territory in 1803, US President Thomas Jefferson ordered the exploration of the new territories with the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Two years later, both explorers delivered the results of their exploration and President Jefferson supported the occupation of those lands. So the westward expansion started. Thousands of people started to move west using the Oregon Trail to fulfill the Manifested Destiny.

How did the compromise of 1850 affect slavery during manifest destiny
aksik [14]
Manifest Destiny basically mean, "EVERYONE MOVE TO THE WEST NOW!" But with no slaves, how would they create farms to maintain themselves? Easy: expand slavery. However, this was battled against by several sources to create the Compromise of 1850. The compromise delayed the Civil War, despite politicians knowing it will eventually happen. It bought them time-- that was important! Other new states like Nebraska and Kansas were allowed to allow slavery or not. This eventually grew to where the North had no slavery and the South did, which lead to the Civil War.

to protect and enhance the rights of African Americans

The 13th Amendment ended slavery in the US. The 14th Amendment gave blacks citizenship and established due process. The 15th Amendment gave black men the right to vote.

These three amendments were passed toward the end and following the Civil War. They ended the practice of slavery releasing blacks throughout the South from enslavement. The 14th and 15th Amendments provided rights and Constitutional protect for blacks in addition to giving them the power to vote.
