What was one reason the napoleon sold the Louisiana territory to the united states

History
1 answer:
algol [13]3 years ago
4 0

Napoleon sold Louisiana to the United States because at that time in the early 1800s, France was in a bitter war with surrounding European nations and suffered large amounts of debt from Napoleon's tyrannous rule. He didn't have enough troops to secure France during these wars while at the same time shipping more troops to America to govern Louisiana. Also with Spanish territories to the American west and the U.S. to the east it was difficult for Napoleon to enter into Louisiana due to America taking over the Mississippi River. As a result, he had no choice but to annex the Louisiana Territory to Thomas Jefferson for a cheap amount of 15 million dollars ~ roughly 10 ¢ per acre.

Based on events in Native America when the Europeans came, the correct pairs are:

  • Europeans brought diseases and overworked Native Americans. (Cause) - Millions of Native Americans died. (Effect).
  • Native American population declined. (Cause) - Europeans enslaved Africans and brought them to the Americas. (Effect).

<h3>What was the effect of European colonization on the Americas?</h3>

When the Europeans came, they brought new diseases that the Native Americans had no immunity for. This led to millions dying which only got worse thanks to the Europeans overworking Native Americans.

As the Native American population went into a decline, the Europeans needed a newer and more resilient source of labor and so imported millions of Africans as enslaved people.
