Who or what halted westward expansion?

There were several halts to westward expansion of the United States. After the French and Indian Wars, the Proclamation of 1763 forbade further westward expansion by the American colonies. This was to prevent displacing Indian tribes and possible future Indian wars. After the American Revolution, the Mississippi River provided a stopping point for expansion. The west side of the river was the French territory of Louisiana. The French and Spanish banned American settlements past this line. After the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, American claims ran all the way to the Rocky Mountains in the northwest and were limited by New Spain (Texas) in the southwest. After the Mexican-American War, America ended roughly at the Rocky Mountains. Finally, after the California Republic was admitted to the Union, the Pacific Ocean was the only limit to westward expansion.
