The correct answer is wealthy or rich.
In America during the Articles of Confederation, many public officials did not get paid. This is because the federal government lacked the ability to collect taxes from states. Without any new sources of revenue, the individuals running for public office had to be people who were willing to work without a guaranteed salary. Only the most wealthy citizens were able to do this, as a majority of Americans would not survive without some sort of compensation.
The correct answer is manifest destiny.
Manifest destiny is the belief that it was America's god given right to expand from "sea to shining sea." In other words, it was America's destiny to expand their control across the entire North American continent from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. This belief resulted in the US buying land from other countries, fighting in wars, and taking land from Native Americans in order to achieve this goal. This was present throughout American society during the early to middle of the 19th century.
Reflecting the natural rights philosophy, the Declaration of Independence stated that governments derive their powers from the "consent of the governed". This mentality was one of the cornerstones of the Enlightenment era.
Modern international law recognizes only three lawful justifications for waging war: self-defense, defense of an ally required by the terms of a treaty, and approval by the United Nations.
