Brief introduction of American westward movement

The westward movement, also known as the road of blood and tears, refers to the westward migration and western development activities that began at the end of 18 and ended at the end of 19 and the beginning of the 20th century. The movement greatly promoted the development of American economy, but with the westward movement, a large number of Indians were slaughtered, and the westward movement was also the development process of American cultural localization.

The westward movement is an act of aggression by the United States to expand its territory and annex land. It developed the western United States today and destroyed many Indian civilizations. At that time, the United States was only a colony in the east and needed a lot of land. Unable to meet the needs of population and economic development, the local area turned its attention to the west. At that time, the land in the west was all Indian tribes, and a group of pioneers opened up the west and established good relations with Indian tribes. It traveled all the way to the Pacific Ocean, which is now Mexico. Later, a large number of people, including the government and the army, flooded into the west, plundered, induced, deceived and slaughtered Indians and developed the west.
