Yes, it is true that ground <span>fighting in the Pacific was led by the United States marines, since these soldiers were almost always deployed via ships, as opposed to other more land-based means. </span>
<span>This is of course somewhat of a subjective question, but in general most would agree that in general expansion was not justifiable since the Mexicans and Natives were doing nothing to provoke the US. One could argue it was justifiable since Americans needed more land. </span>
Answer:
There are around 14 States that are present on the east coast of the United States which means the states considered lie around the Atlantic Ocean. The East Coast States have some very popular States in them like New York City.
Some of the East Coast States are named as Rhode Island, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, North and South Carolina, Massachusetts, Maine, Delaware and Virginia are included in them.
High mountains and access to water (the sea, not rivers) meant that
navies were critical for war and trade.
This also meant that the different city states of Ancient Greece were
physically separated from each other.
This allowed each culture to have similarities (like language and
religion), but also significant differences like the Spartan vs. Athens
systems. This also led to a particular
type of farming and a limited ability to fight in open plains. Hence the Hoplite system with phalanxes
became dominant.
