Answer 2

Answer:

In 1803, the United States purchased the Louisiana Territory from France.  

Explanation:

The most notable reason for the United States to purchase the Louisiana Territory from France was to expand its nation's size and to provide more space for farming and raising livestock.

As the Louisiana territory was located very near to the Mississippi river, it was chosen as the best place by Thomas Jefferson, then President of America.

He sent one of his ministers named Robert Livingston to France to talk about the matter with Emperor Napoleon. Initially, the deal has disagreed but after some time Napoleon agreed and sold the Louisiana Territory to the "United States" for fifteen million US dollars.
