Disjoint and disconnected contributions characterize game theory, yet somehow culminate in a well-defined field of applied mathematics.

land that belonged to Mexico. President James Polk pressed to expand coast to coast due to his belief in Manifest Destiney (History.com). Mexico obviously was not happy with this and refused to allow the United States to purchase their land, which consisted of what is now know as the southern parts of the United States. Even though the Mexicans had refused, president Polk was stuck in his belief of his God-given right to acquire the whole continent, Polk went ahead and still pushed for the land that

The first reason the United States was justified in going to war with Mexico is because we had rights. “Polk was a strong supporter of manifest destiny.” This shows that Polk would have agreed to what people had to say about gaining land. “When word arrived

When Mexico captured San Antonia on September 11, 1842 a lot of volunteers join Texas’s army. They would all go into different companies under leaders like Mathew Caldwell and Nicholas Dawson. They coordinated their attacks by each company going after a specific city that would lead to San Antonio.

The United States of America has been through many wars, wars concerning many things such as land oil, pride and respect.
