2) April 11, 1803: Louisiana Purchase
In 1682, France's Sierra de la Salle claimed the Louisiana Territory for France without regard for
the thousands of Native peoples living in the area. In 1803, the United States negotiated the
purchase of the Louisiana Territory from France for $15 million. With a stroke of a pen America
doubled in size, making it one of the largest nations in the world.
Clearly an act of imperialism or clearly not? Why or why not?
