Quiz on Monday 8.2 The Louisiana Purchase
The Ohio and Mississippi River became important trade routes for the new states of Kentucky, Ohio, and Tennessee. When Spain closed the city of New Orleans, which was the gateway to the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers, it hurt the economy of the United States. Spain trades New Orleans to France. New Orleans became part of the Louisiana Territory which Napoleon wanted to conquer for France, but he gave up on it because he lost his base of Haiti to a slave rebellion. Jefferson sends Robert Livingston and James Monroe to buy New Orleans, but Napoleon offers to sell the whole Louisiana Territory for $15 million, which was a bargain. He needed money for his war against Britain. He also hoped that the U.S. would grow to become a threat to his enemy, Britain. Jefferson was a strict constructionist so he felt that he couldn’t do things that the Constitution did not give him permission to do. There was nothing about buying land in the Constitution. But in the end, he thought that the Louisiana Purchase was best for the country because it gave Americans a lot of land and opportunity. Louisiana Purchase was approved by Senate on October 20, 1803. Jefferson wanted to know more about the Native Americans in the Louisiana Territory and was interested in a water route to the Pacific Ocean. That’s why he sent explorers. Jefferson sends Meriwether Lewis and Lewis’ friend William Clark to explore the Louisiana Territory. They had a Shoshone guide, Sacagawea, who taught about the plants that were safe to eat. They explored the Northwest part of the Louisiana Territory and traveled all the way to the Pacific Ocean. He also sent Zebulon Pike to explore the Red River because it was the southwest border of the Louisiana Territory. Pike explored the Southwest part of the Louisiana Territory, its many rivers, and the Rocky Mountains. He ended up in Spanish territory and was arrested.
