Manifest Destiny was a Propaganda tool that convinced Americans that not only was it possible to take further land to expand the nation, but that it was the morally right thing to do. It gave them a justification for pushing the Indians and Mexicans out, and, with the help of land grants from the government, spurred Americans to settle the frontier.

The Indian Territory was established in the 19th century primarily to relocate Native American tribes from their ancestral lands in the eastern United States, following the Indian Removal Act of 1830. This policy aimed to open up land for European-American settlers and agricultural development. The territory served as a designated area where displaced tribes could settle, although it often led to significant cultural disruption and loss of traditional lands for Native Americans. Ultimately, the establishment of Indian Territory was part of a broader strategy of westward expansion and manifest destiny.
The U.S. sought Indian territory primarily for economic expansion and agricultural development. As the nation grew, there was a pressing demand for land to accommodate settlers and cultivate crops, particularly during the westward expansion of the 19th century. Additionally, the ideology of Manifest Destiny fueled the belief that it was America's destiny to expand across the continent, often at the expense of Native American tribes. This led to various policies and actions aimed at displacing Indigenous peoples from their ancestral lands.
