According to a different source, this is the image that the question refers to.

In this question, we are asked to approach the question of "How justifiable was U.S. expansion in the 1800s?" from the perspective of four elements in the painting. This is an example that can help you guide your work:

The angel: "I carry the telegraph, I carry knowledge, I carry progress. You should be grateful."

The cows: "More expansion means more land, which means more farms and more cows. I think I like that!"

The Native Americans: "Quick! Let's get away before this so-called "progress" reaches us! They will continue to expand and take our land even if they have no right to do so."

The passengers in the train: "Without progress, we would not be in this train. I'm so glad we are expanding! It is necessary if we want technology to keep developing."

Although expansion was supported by a large portion of the population of the United States, not everyone believed that this was a good idea. In fact, the Native Americans, as well as many politicians, believed that expansion was not legitimate, and that it could bring more problems than anticipated.

Why did president andrew jackson not want to annex texas because he knew it would divide the nation. why did he think this?
natima [27]
Andrew Jackson worried that annexing (aka adding) Texas to the US would divide the nation because Texas would enter the Union as a slave state. During the early to mid 19th century, US presidents were constantly trying to balance the number of free and slave states. Their reasoning behind this is that they did not want any side (aka free states or slave states) gaining too much power in Congress.

During this time, Northern politicians were worried that having a lot of slave states in Congress would result in the slave states making slavery legal in all of the new territories gained by the US during the 19th century. The Southern politicians were worried that if free states controlled Congress, they would try to make a law/amendment to get rid of slavery.
