1. On Apr. 11, 1803, the French foreign minister Charles Maurice de Talleyrand opened negotiations by asking the surprised Livingston what the United States would give for all of Louisiana. Bargaining began in earnest the next day, on Monroe's arrival in Paris.
2. In the Louisiana Purchase, there were three important people that had a big impact on the Purchase. There names were Napoleon Bonoparte, Thomas Jefferson, and Robert R Livingston.
3. American diplomats Robert Livingston and James Monroe purchased the Louisiana Territory from the French for $15 million dollars, or four cents an acre, in 1803
