Answer:
The historical similarity between the concept of Manifest Destiny in the 1840s and the ideas that motivated European colonists to migrate to North America in the 1600s were based on the same ideology and philosophy. Europeans believed that they were divinely mandated to discover, occupy, and exploit North America and evangelize the continent.

Manifest Destiny was a concept coined and popularized by John O'Sullivan, through which President James Polk even fought the 13-years long Pig War to expand the United States territory westward, including to Oregon. Before this coinage was popularized among European colonists, it had been the standing policy of Europeans, who crossed to the continent, to occupy North America as a divine mandate. How the divine mandate was established remains questionable to date?

Those who generally lost the most were the Africans and Natives on whose land the Europeans were extracting resources. </span><span />
