Westward expansion in the United States was driven by several key factors, including the belief in Manifest Destiny, which held that Americans were destined to expand across the continent. Economic opportunities, such as the promise of fertile land, the Gold Rush, and the desire for new markets, also motivated many settlers to move west. Additionally, advancements in transportation, like railroads and steamboats, made travel easier and encouraged migration. Lastly, government policies, including land grants and treaties, facilitated and promoted settlement in the western territories.
