The correct answer is option "A".

Manifest Destiny, which was a phrase coined in 1845 expressed a religious belief for supporting US territorial expansion. It implied a divine force that willed the united states to obtain and settle the western territories. Manifest Destiny stated that the United States was destined by God not only to expand its dominion but also to spread democracy as well as capitalism across North America. The manifest justified extreme measures used to remove the native population from the land, including violent extermination.
