Answer:

The aquisition of the Louisiana Territory nearly doubled the size of the United States.

Explanation:

The Louisiana Purchase was an agreement held in 1803, when the United States, under President Thomas Jefferson, bought land from France for $ 15 million. With the purchase, the United States doubled its previous area.

France was weakened and in financial crisis after the loss of Haiti. Napoleon Bonaparte offered the US to buy the land, partly to improve finances, and partly because he saw a strengthened US as a counterweight to the UK. In the agreement signed, the boundaries were only vaguely formulated and it was not clear whether the purchase also included Western Florida and Texas. After negotiations with Spain and the United Kingdom, the boundaries of the Florida Purchase were established in 1819.

Discuss the phenomenon of Free Blacks owning slaves in antebellum times. Read the following articles. Give your opinions and the
Igoryamba

Answer:

    Free blacks throughout the antebellum period, which encompassed the years from the creation of the Union until the Civil War, were vocal in their opposition to slavery's injustice. In terms of their ability to express themselves, their location in the North or the South was a determining factor. Free Southern blacks continued to live under the shadow of slavery, unable to move or congregate as freely as those in the North, despite their freedom from slavery. Additionally, it was more difficult for them to create and maintain churches, schools, and fraternal organizations like as the Masons during this time period.

    Despite the fact that their lives were restricted by a slew of discriminatory regulations even during the colonial period, freed African Americans, particularly those living in the North, were active participants in the life of the country. Black troops served in the American Revolution and the War of 1812, and many of them were African-American. Some had land, residences, businesses, and were required to pay taxes. For brief periods of time in some Northern cities, black property owners were able to cast ballots. Slaves were owned by a very tiny number of free blacks. The slaves that the majority of free blacks purchased were relatives who were eventually manumitted by their masters. Slave holding plantations in Louisiana, Virginia, and South Carolina were owned by a small number of free blacks.
