What was the importance of the purchase and exploration of the Louisiana Purchase What was the importance of the purchase and exploration of the Louisiana Purchase?

 By 1800 more than one million settlers lived between the Appalachian Mountains and Mississippi  Most settler were farmers and relied on Mississippi to ship their crops to the port at New Orleans

 In 1795 U.S. negotiated the Pinckney Treaty Guaranteed Americans’ rights to ship goods down the Mississippi and store goods in New Orleans

 In 1801, Spain secretly gave New Orleans and the Louisiana Territory to France Jefferson worried about how Napoleon Bonaparte would rule the area

 1802 the Governor of New Orleans stopped allowing Americans to ship their goods through New Orleans  Americans wanted to go to war  Jefferson decided to send James Monroe to Paris to buy New Orleans from the French

 Meanwhile in Haiti, a revolution led by Toussaint L’Ouverture had driven the French out  Without Haiti, the French would not be able to defend Louisiana during a war  In France, another war between France and Britain was about to begin and the French needed money to fund it

 France offered to sell ALL OF THE LOUISIANA TERRITORY for $15 million (about 4 cents an acre)  Because it would take months to get Jefferson’s advice, Monroe accepted the offer  This agreement would almost double the size of the country and give the U.S. control of the Mississippi

 The Constitution nowhere states that the President has the power to buy land from a foreign country

 Jefferson decided he could purchase the land because the Constitution said the president could make treaties  The Senate approved the treaty and Congress voted to pay for the land
