Some positive effects of the westward expansion is that the Pony Express Continental came about. Westward Expansion also allowed more jobs to be invented from the Gold Rush. Plus, the size of the United States doubled,meaning there are more resources available. The negative effects are the Native Americans being forced in to reservations after having their land stolen, being forced to assimilate into the white culture, having their main source of life, the buffalo to be killed off, and war which caused the deaths of many Native Americans.
