Why La Salle came to Texas? LaSalle asked the King Louis XIV to settle a colony at the mouth of the Mississippi River LaSalle in 1684 set sail with 4 ships and over 320 People The Belle

Unfortunately, LaSalle was very bad at Geography

An Unfortunate Series of Events Ship One- Food Transporter, captured by the Spanish Ship Two- Turned Around <Landfall> Ship Three – Ran aground Ship Four- The Belle shipwrecked

LaSalle landed at Matagorda Bay 400 MILES OFF

The Belle Found

LaSalle built Fort Louis

Still Lost LaSalle still thought he was EAST of the Mississippi LaSalle and some men set out going west to find it— They found the Rio Grande instead Upon his return to the Fort only 36 were alive Assassination

The Louisiana Purchase The land claimed by LaSalle for France was later sold to the United States in 1803 to pay for Napoleon’s military campaigns. The United States paid 15 million dollars for the land. This purchase doubled the size of the U.S.

The Columbian Exchange What is it?-The widespread transfer of animals, plants, culture, human populations, diseases, technology and ideas between the New World (The Americas) and the Old World (Europe) Diseases brought by Europeans killed many Native Americans because they had never been exposed to them before and did not have an immunity to them.

Conquistadores Spanish explorers that came in search of Gold, Glory and God.
