The Supreme Court asserted that it has the right to declare laws of Congress unconstitutional.
It was sort of a roundabout way in which the principle of judicial review was asserted by the Supreme Court in the case of Marbury v. Madison. William Marbury had been appointed Justice of the Peace for the District of Columbia by outgoing president John Adams -- one of a number of such last-minute appointments made by Adams. When Thomas Jefferson came into office as president, he directed his Secretary of State, James Madison, not to deliver many of the commission papers for appointees such as Marbury. Marbury petitioned the Supreme Court directly to hear his case, as a provision of the Judiciary Act of 1789 had made possible. The Court said that particular provision of the Judiciary Act was in conflict with Article III of the Constitution, and so they could not issue a specific ruling in Marbury's case (which they believe he should have won). But the bottom line was, the Court had taken up the right of judicial review by calling out a portion of the Judiciary Act of 1789 as unconstitutional.
True, New Orleans was an important factor in Thomas Jefferson's desire to purchase the Louisiana Territory from France because the United States had been seeking to gain control of New Orleans and originally only wanted to purchase New Orleans. When the rest of the territory became available the U.S. ended up purchasing the territory from France, but New Orleans was a major factor in the decision making.

Battle for Yorktown
Explanation:
- British general Cornwallis found himself with his army in Yorktown in 1781, where he rested and rebuilt supplies.
- A significant force under arms had been fighting and dominating the American South for months, so it needed a break.
- There, unexpectedly from land and sea, they were besieged by the Americans and their allies by the French and badly defeated. After this battle, British King George began negotiations with the Americans, which eventually resulted in the recognition of United States independence
.
- If US forces had not won the revolutionary battle of Yorktown, the United States probably would not have existed today. It was a decisive victory for the combined forces of the Americans led by George Washington and the French led by the Earl of Rochambeau over the British army.
- After months of the siege of Yorktown, General Lord Cornwallis surrendered his 8,000 men and in a few weeks America fully declared its independence from the British Empire.
