Evaluate the significance of westward expansion in terms of its implications for social, economic, and political developments in America between 1783 and 1860.

Evaluate the significance of westward expansion in terms of its implications for social, economic,
and political developments in America between 1783 and 1860. Be sure to discuss population
growth, political change, the “Market Revolution,” Indian Removal, the growth of the “Cotton
Kingdom” and the rise (and limitations of) “Jacksonian Democracy.” Your essay should explain
how these processes were interconnected, and the social movements (particularly abolitionism)
that arose in response to the various changes playing out. Conclude by looking at the implications
of westward expansion for the coming of civil war by 1860-1861 (you can reference the secession
documents you looked at for the daily assignment here). Be sure to use the relevant
sources/lectures posted in the Unit 3 Readings folder, and of course your lecture notes and the
slides. Use Times New Roman, 12 pt font, and double space. Please use attached powerpoint slides for sources and use paranthetical citations where appropriate.
