The Louisiana Purchase territory was for the period between the end of the French and Indian War (Seven Years War) and 1800 actually belonged to Spain. Spain sold it to France in 1800. The heavy American influence came from Pickneys Treaty which allowed trade down the river to New Orleans for shipping.

How was life like in the Louisiana Purchase before US annexation?

It's better to think of the Louisiana Purchase as the purchase of New Orleans than the vast territory that we see on maps. New Orleans was the key to the territory because it controlled access to the river system - so much so that Americans were concerned that Kentucky would have to secede from the Union if the British won the Battle of New ...

The Louisiana purchase was 827,000 square miles purchased for 15 million. 15,000,000 / 827,000 = $18.14 per square mile Divide that $18.14 by 640 acres per square mile is 18.14 / 640 = 0.0283 cents per acre. So essentially we bought the Louisiana purchase at $.02 per acre. That land has probably produce trillions in GDP since its purchase.

Not an expert from the British/French angle, but one of the sources I have read claimed that the British were initially opposed to the Louisiana Purchase. Their hope was that if Napoleon retained Louisiana he would drop his claims on Malta, which the British had agreed to cede in the peace of Amiens.

The thing is, the 828,000 sq miles of Indian land was never the central purpose or goal of the Louisiana Purchase. Originally, Jefferson only wanted to buy the port of New Orleans and access to the Mississippi River through the Gulf of Mexico, which definitely was controlled and occupied by the French, and couldn't have been taken by the US ...

So after rewatching and analyzing season 3, I would just like to address how fucking awesome Louisiana Purchase is. Her drag aesthetic is so unique, sort of vintage but so fresh, she?s overall a really sweet person (Ms. Congeniality of Dragula season 3 in my opinion), but what stands out to me is her extremely impressive track record.

For New Orleans to be under the control of France meant that France controlled a significant part of our commerce, putting the two nations on an inevitable crash course. Jefferson recognized this, which is why he approached Napoleon to purchase New Orleans. Napoleon decided instead to offer the entire territory to us, and the rest is history.

Logistically, how did Napoleon get paid for the Louisiana Purchase?

Thank you for the great question! I have been studying the history of early Jeffersonian Era for a while now; a particular interest of mine has been the Louisiana Purchase. In 1803 things were just warming up for Napoleon, who was serving as the First Consul of the Republic of France. He would become Emperor in May of the following year.

The two banking houses worked together to facilitate and underwrite the purchase.[citation needed] Although the War of the Third Coalition, which brought France into a war with the United Kingdom, began before the purchase was completed, the UK allowed the deal to proceed as it was better for the neutral Americans to own the territory than the ...
