This deal expanded the U.S trade network because we could transport goods easier by boat because we got the port of New Orleans. Indigenous people felt lesser than and would want to rebel because they could no longer trust the Americans anymore

The U.S could focus more on their Idea of manifest destiny instead of worrying about being crowded in small towns with a big population of people. The Indian tribes would have trouble functioning as tribes without so many people that they lost in the Trail of Tears. The Indian tribes would be blighted with the loss of family and friends from the illnesses of the long 800 ish mile journey.

Texasbecoming part of the U.S would affect slavery because Texas is pro-slavery so southern states would want Texas to join the U.S but northern states would not wantTexas to join the U.S. Texas would play a part in helping the U.S with theirdept as well.

Mexico lost many people crucial in their economy Farmers, Merchants, Bankers, and ECT.and that would affect their economy and how they function. The U.S continued to get more land and become stronger and more powerful to the state we are today.

The new land for the U.S gave new places for farming and finally fulfilled the idea of manifest destiny as well as eliminating the threat of Great Britain that could have grown more powerful if the U.S had not stood up and taken some ofthe land.

this was mostly the end of U.S v.s Native American conflicts because most ofthe remaining Indian tribes were either muted or assimilated into U.S society. this was important to the U.S because the obstacle of the native Americans went extinct.
