<h2>The land involved in the Louisiana Purchase: stretched from the Gulf of Mexico to Canada and from the Mississippi River to the Rocky Mountains. The correct answer is D</h2>
Explanation:
The Louisiana Purchase was made 200 years ago this month. It was nearly doubled the size of the United States. It was one of the most colossal land transactions, involving an area larger than France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Germany, Holland, Switzerland and the British Isles combined.
All or parts of 15 Western states would eventually be carved from its nearly 830,000 square miles, which stretched from the Gulf of Mexico to Canada, and from the Mississippi River to the Rocky Mountains.
And the price, $15 million, or about four cents an acre, was a breathtaking bargain.
