How did the term Wild West come up?

The term "Wild West" refers to the American frontier during the late 19th century, characterized by lawlessness, adventure, and the expansion of settlers into previously uncharted territories. It emerged from the rapid westward expansion following the Civil War, particularly during the Gold Rush and the establishment of cattle ranching. The phrase evokes images of gunfights, outlaws, and pioneers, influenced by literature, dime novels, and later films that romanticized this tumultuous period in American history. Over time, the "Wild West" has come to symbolize both the challenges and the spirit of exploration and opportunity in the American narrative.
