- Yeah! James Monroe and Robert Livingston were the ones who went to France and bought it from them. After all the reason Thomas Jefferson wanted to buy the Louisiana territory was for future protection, expansion, prosperity and the mystery of unknown land
- Thomas Jefferson's best buy.
-
- Wow! Thomas Jefferson just bought Louisiana from French leader Napoleon for a mere 15 million! They were able to get 827,000 square miles of land west of the Mississippi River.
- 1803
- Yes you can. You must. We dont have another choice.
- death of the Cherokee Nation
- In 1838 and 1839, as part of Andrew Jackson's Indian removal policy, the Cherokee nation was forced to give up its lands east of the Mississippi River and to migrate to an area in present-day Oklahoma. The Indians suffered so much that they called it the Trail of Tears.
- I cant do this. I am tired
- rThe battle of the Alamo was fought between the Republic of Texas and Mexico army which was led by General Santa Anna from February 23rd, 1836 to March 6, 1836. It took place at a fort in San Antonio, Texas called the Alamo. The Mexicans won the battle, killing all of the Texanssoldiers inside the fort. The battle of the Alamo was fought over issues like federalism, preservation of the Antebellum South, slavery, immigration rights, the cotton industry, and above all, money.
- No Texan may leave the fort alive
- RETREA-
- The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was signed on February 2, 1848, by Nicholas Trist (on behalf of the U.S) and Luis G. Cuevas, Bernando Couto, and Miguel Atristain as representatives of Mexico. The treaty ended the war between the U.S and Mexico. By its terms, Mexico ceded 55% of its territory, including parts of present-day Arizona, California, New Mexico, Texas, Colorado, Nevada, and Utah, to the United States. It was signed at the main altar of the old Basilica of Guadalupe at Villa Hidalgo (within the present city limits) as the U.S.
- The Louisiana Purchase gave the United States more room for land and crops, having a stronger ecosystem and a wider trading network which was able to make them a stronger country. When the United States purchased Louisiana the Native Americans who were living in Louisiana were unable to live their lives the way they wanted and that led to the death of many Native Americans which was bad since the Native Americans had influenced many areas of the American way of life.
- Mexico loses more than half of their land
- The Trail of Tears showed just how determined American settlers were to achieve Manifest Destiny, and that they would do anything-including committing genocide and killing innocent people-just to complete it. For the U.S this event made them one step closer to achieving manifest destiny and gave them more land for white settlers to live in.
- The trail that let many white settlers find a place to settle.
- The Oregon Trail was a roughly 2,000-mile route from independence, Missouri, to Oregon City, Oregon, which was used by hundreds of thousands of American pioneers in the mid-1800s to emigrate west. The trail was difficult and twisted through Missouri and present-day Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, Idaho, and finally into Oregon. Without the Oregon Trail and the passing of the Oregon Donation Land Act in 1850, which encouraged settlement in the Oregon territory, American pioneers would have been slower to settle the American Westin the 19th century.
- The Battle of the Alamo fueled the Texan's anger with the Mexicans even further which was good for them because it made them want to fight for independence even more and that freedom would give them more power and freedom. For the Mexicans, the victory over the Texans was one of the main battles they ever won against the Texans and that made them feel strong which made the fighting intense.
- the battle that proved just how strong the Native Americans could be
- The battle of the Little Bighorn, fought on June 25, 1876, near the Little BighornRiver in Montana Territory, pitted federal troops led by Lieutenant ColonelGeorge Armstrong Custer against a band of Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne warriors. Tensions between the two groups had been rising since the discovery of gold on Native American lands. When a number of tribes missed a federal deadline to move to reservations, the U.S. Army, including Custer and his 7th Cavalry, was dispatched to confront them. Custer had no idea of the number of Indians fighting under the command of Sitting Bull at Little Bighorn, and his forces were outnumbered and quickly overwhelmed in what became known as Custer’s last stand.
- The treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo halved the size of Mexico which would affect their power, their trading network, and having more land for crops. Texas was able to become part of the U.S which expanded its land and gave them a wider trading network making Texas more powerful.
- Hello, I'm Nicholas Trist. I will be signing the treaty on behalf of the U.S.
- Hello, I am Luis G. Cuevas. I am also a representative of Mexico
- Hello
- Hello I'm Miguel, and the person next to me is Bernando Couto. We are both representatives of Mexico
- The Oregon Trail wiped out many Native Americans because of the illnesses the settlers carried and the Native Americans had no immunity to them, which made their population shrink making them less powerful. For the U.S the trail pointed the way for the U.S to expand westward to achieve Manifest Destiny which would give them many things like more food farming land, oil, cottton etc.
- 1840-1860
- The Battle of Little Bighorn proved to the American Indians just how strong they could be which made them realize that they were not inferior and that they had as much right to land as the U.S did. When the U.S lost that war it made them think of the Native Americans as wild and bloodthirsty which fuelled their motive of driving them out of their homelands.
