Between the 1820s and 1850s, Americans moved west for several reasons, including the pursuit of economic opportunities, land ownership, and the promise of a better life. The concept of Manifest Destiny fueled the belief that expansion across the continent was a divine right and duty. Additionally, events like the California Gold Rush in 1849 and the availability of fertile land for farming attracted many settlers seeking wealth and new beginnings.
