In 1845, John O'Sullivan coined the term Manifest Destiny when he described the idea that the U.S. was destined by God to occupy the entire continent , rule over or get rid of any other native inhabitants, and bring civilization to everyone.

The Cause: Manifest Destiny was an ideology first developed as the U.S. fought over territory that would later become the state of Texas.

Effect: This ideology was used any time a leader wanted to explain why the U.S. had a right to expand or to remove native inhabitants, such as the Indian Removal Act.
