the Oregon Territory
Manifest Destiny was the belief that Americans would expand westward, and that was God's will or something like that. Through manifest destiny, the government wanted to obtain the land westward such as the louisiana purchase, hawaii, cuba. All their territorial expansion. Involvement in conquering these territories resulted in a ton of land for the american people, money, resources which were obtained through wars. Along the lines, America gained some foes, and also established power by expanding their nation. As Americans gained more land, the citizens had new opportunites (in the new lands). Some decided to create utopian societies (which didn't really work out in the end); some established ethnic neighborhoods. Others created homesteads. Remember that farming was a lot more common back then, especially in the west (newest land).

"Manifest Destiny" refers to the American belief that it was the nation's destiny to expand their borders from their position on the eastern coast of America to the Pacific Ocean; it is mentioned in the line, "from sea to shining sea" in the American National Anthem. The natives were already living in the west, and had been for hundreds and hundreds of years. Thus, Americans forced the natives into reservations and took their ancestors' land from them, resulting in the achievement of Manifest Destiny. Native Americans lost their homes, their food sources (buffalo and other plains animals), and even [some of] their lives while America gained said land, gold from California, and completed a task they'd dreamt of since the anthem was written - possibly before that. Not to mention the oil they later discovered there.
The young united states gained more land that helped them almost achieve Manifest Destiny... also it doubled the size of the country.

Well the U.S. went to war with Mexico. And all of this happened because of Manifest Destiny. After the war with Mexico we gained the Oregon Territory; it make up of Idaho, Washington, and Oregon of course.
the negative result is more then half of the native population was destroyed. to the point it was genocide. the race of the native american people decreased. Loss a lifes and the stealing of land should without a doubt be a serious set-back for moral-high people.
