At the start of the Civil War, those Americans who favored the North to win would most certainly have been thinking of several key factors.

Evidence that proves that the Americans might expand into British Norh America was the fact that after the civil war, the Americans moved westward, following their belief of Manifest Destiny. The Americans conqured lands controlled by Mexico, spain, France, and Great Britain.
