Why and how US colonized?

Answer 1

The U.S. colonization was driven by a desire for land, resources, and economic expansion, as well as a belief in Manifest Destiny—the idea that Americans were destined to expand across the continent. The process began with European settlers establishing colonies on the East Coast, leading to the displacement of Native American tribes. As the country expanded westward, conflicts with indigenous peoples and foreign powers occurred, culminating in territorial acquisitions through treaties, purchases, and wars, such as the Louisiana Purchase and the Mexican-American War. This expansion often involved significant violence and injustice towards Native Americans and other populations.
