I am assuming you are talking about the United States’ states in your question:
1. Population - more population meant more seats in the House of Representatives.
2. Resources - western territories had resources that were not found (or at least were not as abundant) in the east, like gold. Access to those resources meant more income for the states.
3. Slavery – Southern States were concerned about a non-slave owning state majority so there was always a fight over whether the new states would allow slavery or not.

Early territories of the original colonies stretched far westward and eventually these became the first new post-Revolution states.

both eastern and western early north american cultures were known for building wigwams and longhouses.

wigwams, also called wetus, were small houses of 8-10 feet tall, made of wooden frames covered with woven mats and sheets that were used by algonquian indians. similarly, longhouses were also used by algonquian and the iroquois tribes, and they were built as well with pole frames and elm bark covering. however, the main difference between wigwams and longhouses is that the latter was much larger than the former, with 200 feet long, 20 feet wide, and 20 feet high with inner raised platforms used for sleeping space.
