The correct answer is Manifest Destiny<span>.

Manifest Destiny is the belief that it is the god given right for America to expand their power from "sea to shining sea." The sea to shining sea refers to the land between the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean.

This term coined by John O' Sullivan helps to explain why America bought land from other countries (like France and Spain) and fought wars against other countries (like Mexico) during the 19th century. Overall, Manifest Destiny helped the US gain numerous states like Texas, Florida, Arizona, California, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, etc. </span>
