State vs. Non-State When considering the use of violence and non-violence throughout history‚ or at least in the last 200 years‚ the term Manifest Destiny comes to mind. Although it is not in itself a violent or for that matter a “non-violent” action‚ the idea of Manifest Destiny gave Americans the attitude of God’s will for westward expansion which in turn lead to the violent relocation of the Native Americans‚ or First Peoples.
