Are the westward expansion and the westward movement the same?

Yes they are the same because along with the expansion, many Americans had to move and settle on the Western lands.


Why did some Americans agree to westward expansion and others opposed?

There was no opposition to the westward expansion of the US. The first available westward movement came with the Treaty of Paris, where England gave to the 13 colonies all land east of the Mississippi River. Also, the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 set the groundwork for westward expansion.


What peoples were hurt in the process of manifest destiny?

The expansion of the US westward dislocated Native American peoples that occupied many areas west of the 13 original British colonies on the east coast of North America. To a lessor extent this happened in what is now Canada and Mexico as well. The so-called manifest destiny narrative makes for interesting reading but is not the explanation for the western movement of Europeans in the eastern colonial areas westward. For example, Canadians moved from what is now Quebec to the western coast of Canada. There was no manifest destiny that accelerated that movement. The same is true for the movement westward by the US.


Was British alliance with Tecumseh to stop westward expansion a factor of the war of 1812?
