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>

<h2>The partition was outlined in the Indian Independence Act 1947 and resulted in the dissolution of the British Raj, or Crown rule in India. The two self-governing countries of India and Pakistan legally came into existence at midnight on 15 August 1947. The partition displaced between 10 and 20 million people along religious lines, creating overwhelming refugee crises in the newly constituted dominions.There was large-scale violence, with estimates of the loss of life accompanying or preceding the partition disputed and varying between several hundred thousand and two million. The violent nature of the partition created an atmosphere of hostility and suspicion between India and Pakistan that affects their relationship to this day.</h2>
