They were in a zigzag pattern to prevent enemy gunfire from just killing everyone by firing in a straight line in case an enemy ever gets into the trench.

The answer lies in knowing what would happen if trenches were formed in a straight line. Imagine it! If trenches were in a straight line and a portion of the trench was overtaken by the enemy, it would make it so much easier for the enemy to quickly open fire down the length of the trench to take out any soldiers harbouring there and thus quickly take control of the trench before anyone could muster a counter attack.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The material justifications behind Manifest Destiny, are, in first place, the need for more land, because the United States was growing fast, both due to natural growth, and also due to immigration from Europe.

The second material justification was the need for more resources. The American West has important resources, including access to the Pacific Ocean.

Ideologically, the first justification is that Americans considered their duty and right to expand the American ideology over the western part of the continent, and impose this ideoloy over Native Americans.

The second ideological justification is the same but pertaining to religion: Americans felt that it was their duty and right to spread christianity.
