1. Americans felt the need to move west because they wanted to control the west part. 2. They also moved because they wanted cheap land to pay for.

As additional forces came to Alaric’s side, Emperor Honorius did little to help the city and oppose Alaric. The Goths were still viewed as barbarians and no match for the armies of the empire. Although the treasury was virtually empty, the Senate finally succumbed, and wagons left the city carrying two tons of gold, 13 tons of silver, 4,000 silk tunics, 3,000 fleeces, and 3,000 pounds of pepper. Alaric eased the siege, still hoping to negotiate terms, but Honorius remained blind to the seriousness of the situation. While temporarily agreeing to Alaric’s demands - something he never intended to honor - 6,000 Roman soldiers were sent to the city but were quickly defeated by Alaric’s brother-in-law Athaulf.
<span>The Mauryan Empire was the first to unite the whole Indian subcontinent and although it didn't last more than 100 years, it did leave a significant legacy in southern Asia. The biggest impact that the empire had was the spread of Buddhism. The final king of the Mauryan Empire was the first Buddhist king, and the first to send
Buddhist missionaries throughout southern Asia. Although Indian society is now mostly Hindu, the popularity of Buddhism in other parts of southern Asia is largely the result of the the Mauryan's effort to spread the word of the Dharma. Due to the fact that the Mauryan was the first empire to conquer all of the Indian subcontinent, it was the beginning of the collective history of the people of that region and it may have something to do with the formation of the country of India.</span>
