  • Louisiana Purchase
  • New Orleans, June 14, 1803
  • No Way!
  • Hear Ye, Hear Ye! News from France has arrived! The Louisiana Territory was sold by General Napoleon Bonaparte to President Thomas Jefferson on April Thirtieth, 1803!
  • Louisiana Territory Purchased by United States
  • What?!
  • Indian Removal In The Southeast
  • Indian removal actAndrew Jackson
  • Boo Hoo!
  • The Indian Removal Act is now signed and will come into effect!
  • Texas Independence and the Battle of the Alamo
  • February 25, 1836
  • Para México!
  • For Texas!
  • For Freedom!
  • The Louisiana purchase significantly increased the power and land of the United States for a trifle, opening hundreds of miles of fertile land for farming and securing the Mississippi River and New Orleans, both vital sources of transportation and trade which incited white American settlers to travel west in search of cheap land, all while encroaching on the indigenous population's ancestral land, often forcing them out.
  • Mexican War
  • Santa Anna
  • Attack!
  • Battle of Buena Vista, February 1847
  • The “Indian” Removal Act was brought through Congress by president Andrew Jackson to “get rid of the Indian problem” and free up large amounts of land for white Americans, and it drove tens of thousands of indigenous people, most notably the Cherokee out of their ancestral homes and thousands to their deaths as they trekked hundreds of miles to small reservations in Oklahoma at gunpoint, just to free up land in Georgia for plantations and farms. This event also occurred because the people of the time saw “Indians” as lesser and believed they had a God-given right to land not occupied by white people.
  • Oregon Territory and Oregon Trail
  • I have dysentery.
  • The Battle of the Alamo was important because the defender’s bravery and sacrifice made them into martyrs of the Texas revolution’s cause, and the martyrs would inspire higher morale among the soldiers and many new volunteers conscripting. The Mexicans, however, did not regard the Alamo’sdefenders as martyrs but instead lawbreakers inciting revolution solely for their own profits.
  • American Indians and Westward Expansion
  • I hit two so far!
  • The Mexican War, mostly instigated by the US, ended with significant land concessions from Mexico with barely any casualties, which opened hundreds of miles of new, sparsely populated territory for farming and gold mining, because gold had been found in California days prior. Meanwhile, Santa Anna was forced to abdicate the presidency, and Mexico lost a third of their total land in concessions and reparations.
  • The Oregon Territory was a great opportunity for many white settlers, who flocked down the two-thousand-mile road in search of cheap land for farming or gold from the Yukon, often risking their lives in horrible weather conditions, deadly diseases, and other tragedies. Meanwhile, the white settlers forced native tribes out of their land to occupy it themselves with the support of the military.
  • Oregon Trail
  • After the Trans-Continental railroad was complete, the genocide of the buffalo began, with people often even standing on the roof of the train to shoot, which led to increased hostility with the Native population, who saw the buffalo as sacred. As hostility increased, many Native American tribes were being forced into small reservations with the US army committing many atrocities, and many tribes rebelled in a bid for freedom.
  • Nooooo!
  • Trans-Continental Railroad
