Mainly through ideas of Manifest Destiny, the idea that settlers had a god given right to expand with the manifest destiny. after the Louisiana purchase, the US bought land previously owned by the French. We made a purchase of the land, thus it was believed the land was ours, even if others were living on it. plus, the government of the time gave rewards in the land, for fighting the civil war. After the gold rush, more were expanding west for personal wealth, it became a common way of life. Much like the saying if everyone was jumping off a cliff would you, everyone was doing it, so many would not have found it hard to live on land that may have not truly been there's.

What does the simile mean between a roller coaster can feel like flying

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Knowing that a simile is a comparison between two things/ideas using the words "like" or "as"--->

A roller coaster can feel like flying because similar to how you would imagine flying to feel like (almost free-falling, liberated, vulnerable, yet invigorating, etc.), a roller coaster enables you to feel the same way, you are high up in the air racing at fast speeds and looping in some way that somehow defies the laws of physics ✨ yes fun stuff

Essentially, roller coasters can feel like flying because flying and roller coasters give the same feelings of excitement and also being high up in the air, since being on the ground won't take ya anywhere.
