If you were a settler in the American West, would you believe in Manifest Destiny? Why or why not? (please give at least 5 sentences).

If I were a settler in the American West, I would think Manifest Destiny is believable. This is because it’s such a huge leap for the country as they are getting about 2x the land they already have. I would be so shocked about it, since America is getting more land for farming, mining, etc... This would improve my living situation and money if I were there, because more land means more room to make money. I would be so grateful for Manifest Destiny at the time.

copernicus finished the first manuscript of his book, "de revolutionibus orbium coelestium" ("on the revolutions of the heavenly spheres") in 1532. in it, copernicus established that the planets orbited the sun rather than the earth. he laid out his model of the solar system and the path of the planets.

both eastern and western early north american cultures were known for building wigwams and longhouses.

wigwams, also called wetus, were small houses of 8-10 feet tall, made of wooden frames covered with woven mats and sheets that were used by algonquian indians. similarly,   longhouses were also used by algonquian and the iroquois tribes, and they were built as well with pole frames and elm bark covering. however, the main difference between wigwams and longhouses is that the latter was much larger than the former, with 200 feet long, 20 feet wide, and 20 feet high with inner raised platforms used for sleeping space.
