By the late 1800s, the United States was experiencing significant geographical, cultural, and economic divisions, leading to the perception of two distinct Americas—East and West. The East was characterized by established cities, industrialization, and a focus on finance and trade, while the West was marked by frontier expansion, agriculture, and a more rugged, individualistic lifestyle. These differences were further accentuated by the influx of immigrants in the East and the westward movement driven by opportunities and the idea of Manifest Destiny. This divergence fostered contrasting values, lifestyles, and economic priorities that shaped the identity of each region.
