3 0

Answer:

To people from New England, the west represented a new territory where to spread the Puritan word and way of life, and where to found new religious communities like those they founded earlier in New England.

For People of the Mid Atlantic and the Appalachias, the west represented a new territory where to settle and live a life as independent as possible from government interference, at the time that tolerance to divergent modes of lives was applied.

Finally, to wealthy plantation owners of the Deep South, the west was simply another territory where to expand the plantation economy that was based on enslaved labor.

How did US annexation of West Florida impact Louisiana?
pishuonlain [190]

<u>Answer:</u>

The US annexation of impacted Louisiana as it created disputes between the two territories over land and political boundaries.  (C)

<u>Explanation:</u>

US gained control over the commerce over Mississippi river by acquiring Louisiana from France. James Madison, the then president, further went to expand America’s boundaries and wanted to acquire west Florida for this.

From time to time, the powers of Louisiana have passed over in different hands (France, US and Spain). Because of uncertainties in geographical and territorial boundaries in Louisiana, the US claimed the Missouri river, Gulf coast and Mississippi river in its interest.

After Louisiana Purchase treaty, US also claimed that West Florida was under this treaty. Spain denied this Claim. USA was also intruding in Louisiana which was unacceptable to Creole residents. All these caused problems in Louisiana.
