A Nation on the Move: Westward Expansion, 1800-1860 U.S. History After 1800, the United States militantly expanded westward across North America, confident of its right and duty to gain control of the continent and spread the benefits of its "superior" culture. In John Gast's American Progress, the white, blonde figure of Columbia--a historical personification of the United States--strides triumphantly westward with the Star of Empire on her head. She brings education, symbolized by the schoolbook, and modern technology, represented by the telegraph wire. White settlers follow her lead, driving the helpless natives away and bringing successive waves of technological progress in their wake. In the first half of the nineteenth century, the quest for control of the West led to the Louisiana Purchase, the annexation of Texas, and the Mexican-American War. Efforts to seize western territories from native peoples and expand the republic by warring with Mexico succeeded beyond expectations. Few nations ever expanded so quickly. Yet, this expansion led to debates about the fate of slavery in the West, creating tensions between North and South that ultimately led to the collapse of American democracy and a brutal civil war. Chapter Outline: Introduction Lewis and Clark The Missouri Crisis Independence for Texas The Mexican-American War, 1846-1848 Free Soil or Slave? The Dilemma of the West The Open Courses Library introduces you to the best Open Source Courses.
