How do you study for an exam?

I review all my notes at least twice a week. As the exam gets closer, I review my notes every day, prioritizing information I am less comfortable with.

What was 'Manifest Destiny' and what actions resulted from this belief?

'Manifest Destiny' was the belief among Americans that the United States deserved to spread from 'sea to shining sea'. Americans felt they had the responsibility to expand their country. Thomas Jefferson acquired the Louisiana Territory from France, the Mexican American War resulted in the United States gaining territory from Mexico and the United States bought several other territories in the West.

What was the 'White Man's Burden'?

The 'white man's burden' was the belief among Europeans that whites had a responsibility to take care of, educate, and civilize non-whites in Africa, Asia, and South America.
