The Oregon Trail was part of the idea of Manifest Destiny because of the fact that Manifest Destiny was the idea that America should expand into the Western land. hope this helps.

the Oregon trial was part of manifest destiny because of the fact that manifest destiny was the idea that America should expand the western territory. the Oregon trial is people who move east to west so it clearly explains manifest destiny because people from the Oregon trail were spreading to the west which is manifest destiny's idea.
