The economic depression of the 1830s heightened discontent and anxiety among Americans, leading many to seek new opportunities and territories to secure their livelihoods. This desire for expansion aligned with the ideology of Manifest Destiny, which promoted the belief that the United States was destined to expand across the continent. As people faced economic hardships, the prospect of new land and resources in the West became increasingly appealing, fueling support for westward expansion. Ultimately, the depression helped galvanize public sentiment around the idea that territorial expansion was essential for prosperity and national greatness.
