Donald Trump has reignited the concept of "Manifest Destiny," which justifies territorial expansion of the United States. This is reminiscent of the 19th century when America expanded westward to the Pacific, often violently, in order to conquer Mexican and Native American lands. During his presidential campaign, Donald Trump stated that he would like to acquire Greenland and Panama Canal, possibly using military force. He also proposed making Canada into the 51st state of the US. These aggressive moves have caused concern regarding diplomatic relationships. "Manifest Destiny" was a belief in God's intention for America to expand from one coast to the other. It tied nationalism, religion, and territorial expansion together. Donald Trump has expressed his own version of Manifest Destiny which includes sending American astronauts into space and planting the Stars and Stripes on Mars. The idea of Manifest Destiny in the 21st century is rooted in a violent past filled with ethnic cleansing.
