He sent General Zachary Taylor to claim an area of disputed land for the United States.

Since 1809 the US was, through deals and purchases, trying to expand its own territory; having a lot of success, for example, with the acquisition of Louisiana and Florida. With Mexico it was a little different, they declined many of the substantial offers the US made to them on several occasions.  Not much later, in 1846, President James Polk sent troops to the disputed area, which started the confrontations between the two countries and on March 13 of 1846 President Polk officially declared war on Mexico.

They had a difficult journey through barren lands.

The Mormons had a very difficult trip, they were attacked repeatedly by mobs, they barely had any food and almost no money at all. People would stop them from staying at many places during their journey, sometimes even the government would get involved in taking them out. A lot of them were actually killed during this journey.

The idea that it was God's plan for the nation to expand across the continent.

Manifest destiny is a concept that is best described as an attitude. It was basically a nationalist attitude even impregnated with feelings of superiority. It was something the pioneers believed during the 1800s. It empowered their expansionist views and it was religious at its core, backing the belief that God had a plan for America to have the pioneers expand across the continent.

the correct answers are the following

a proxy war which functioned as a training field for wwii

republican democratic goverment

national side, leaded by the fascist general franco

the spanish civil war took place between 1936 and 1939 and was fought after a military coup undertaken on the 17th july 1936 by a group of generals that had seceeded from the spanish republican army, under the leadership of general franco, and who aimed to expel the democractically-elected republican goverment from power.

this war became a proxy war in which european powers tested their military equipment. on one side, urss and mexico supported the left-wing republican spanish goverment, while nazi germany and fascist italy supported the national fascist side.

franco managed to win the war in 1939, with the significant contribution of the foreign military support, and became the dictator of spain until his death in 1975.
