Manifest Destiny, a central idea in nineteenth-century America, held that American settlers' westward expansion across North America was inevitable and divinely ordained. It was based on three key principles: America's unique moral superiority, a duty to spread its democratic and social institutions for global improvement, and divine approval of its success in this endeavor. This ideology sparked intense political debates and conflicts concerning slavery's expansion and Indigenous peoples' displacement. It influenced the 1844 presidential election, helping the Democrats win and backing contentious moves like the Oregon boundary dispute and Texas annexation, leading to the Mexican–American War. Figures like Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant, along with a later-doubtful John Quincy Adams, criticized Manifest Destiny for its moral and ethical flaws.
