Napoleon Bonaparte<span> of France was engaged in wars on numerous fronts in Europe and was running short of money to fund his military campaigns. When Napoleon assessed options for gaining funds, he recognized that the United States had developed top-rated credit in world markets. He found an opportunity to offer the United States substantial French territory in North America for significant money in return.</span>

<span>At the time, the United States was concerned about France’s control of the mouth of the Mississippi and the possibility of disrupting the flow of future commerce of the United States. Thomas Jefferson, through his diplomatic team in Paris, had earlier proposed acquiring </span>New Orleans<span> and small tracts of land on both sides of the banks of the Mississippi from France for six million dollars.</span>

<span>In April 1803, Napoleon's Treasury Minister made an offer to U.S. diplomat </span>Robert R. Livingston<span> to forward on to the </span>U.S. President Thomas Jefferson<span>. This offer included a much bigger tract of land than the United States had asked for, which France had recently acquired in 1800 from Spain. The price also increased from six million dollars to 15 million dollars for this bigger territorial acquisition offer.</span>

solniwko [45]

Answer:

1. Federal Government

2. More power for the States

Explanation:

During the formation of the Constitution in the United States known as the Constitutional Convention, it was revealed that the North generally supported the idea of a stronger FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

The south, on the other hand, feared Constant interference from the north and wanted "More power for the States."

This is based on the idea that the political elites of the North do not favor slavery which is based on the fact that their economic growth is not based on the exploitation of slavery.

However, the political elites of the South favor slavery simply because their Agricultural based economy thrives best on the exploitation of slavery.

Federalists wanted a stronger central government. The articles did not bind together states (made them a loose friendship), could not regulate commerce, or invoke taxes among other things. Hope this helps :)
