Final answer:

Manifest Destiny justified western expansion as a divine duty in the 1840s.


Explanation:

Manifest Destiny was a concept in the 1840s that justified American expansion as inevitable, just, and divinely foreordained. It portrayed expansion as a moral duty, with the belief that the United States was chosen by God to control the Western Hemisphere. This idea of divine justification led to the addition of Texas, Oregon, and California to the Union.
