Get rich quick, California Gold Rush
The purchase of Louisiana from France apex -Manifest Destiny // Gold! 1849. Gold rush in california
Because of the gold rush in California during the time, the need for slaves grew larger and larger. And as the expansion of land across North American of the United States spread, more farms opened, therfore, more slaves were needed to work there.
The idea that manifest destiny was responsible for growth in territory and or intercontinental railroads is a myth. In the US people sought gold in California. The government offered free land to homesteaders for national interest, not because of any "destiny". It was good chatter for newspapers, but I dare say anyone living in New York City moved to Oklahoma on the basis of manifest destiny. War with Mexico was not based on US president Polk having a vision from God. And the Mexican government did not fight to regain Texas because of religion.

Gold, Silver & Manifest Destiny.
In the early nineteenth century, the idea of "Manifest Destiny" led citizens of the United States to settle on the western frontier. The discovery of gold in California in 1849 hastened that process.
Manifest Destiny significantly impacted California by fueling westward expansion and leading to its incorporation into the United States. The ideology justified the annexation of territories, culminating in the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), after which California was ceded to the U.S. The discovery of gold in 1848 accelerated migration, resulting in a rapid population surge and the establishment of California as a state in 1850. This transformation reshaped the region's economy, culture, and demographics, setting the stage for its development as a key part of the nation.
