Lousiana Purchase

hendrik_bttnr — 2016-02-01 17:39:28 UTC

->Look at the History-part.

Before: Lousiana first was an French colonie. After the Treaty of Paris, the western part of Lousiana became Spain, the eastern part became Great Britian. BUT: Great Britain must give their part to the United States of America. And the French Emperor, Napoleon I. bought the Spain part back.
That happened at the Louisiana Purchase:
