After completing your diary entries, you should now have a richer understanding about the challenges that individuals faced as our country grew westward. Over the past two centuries, millions of Americans have moved west in a search for prosperity. If it were not for these Americans that came before us, our country would not be as prosperous as it is today. But also keep in mind that our prosperity did come with a price.
