How did the Louisiana purchase impact the US? explanation in paragraph form please.
ratelena [41]
At the time, the Lousiana Purchase doubled the size of the United States giving her power and resources(land, water, trade routes, minerals). It also gave America access to the ports in the area greatly aiding trade. The land had belonged to France before it was sold to America, so the purchase removed their presence in the area for the most part. It also fixed ties with France who had previously asked for aid in the French Revolution to which America said no; giving France money in the form of this purchase healed the connection slightly.

The Oregon territory officially belonged to Britain, but was mostly inhabited by Native Americans. It was a very large area that caused many disputes between the European colonists due to the fur-trade. America gained the land (segments of present-day Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming, and Montana) in 1859 when Oregon officially became a state. Many Native Americans were also sent here as America continued to gain territory. The giving over of the land was used to settle the boundary dispute between America and Britain.

fenix001 [56]

The correct answer is agreed to surrender immediately to Allied forces

Between July 17 and August 2, 1945, in Potsdam, a German city next to Berlin, the last of the meetings between the Allied Countries took place, with the presence of Joseph Stalin, Soviet leader; the President of the United States, Harry S. Truman; and Winston Churchill, replaced in recent days by Clement Attlee, his successor as British Prime Minister.

Called “The Big Three”, Stalin, Truman and Churchill had as their objective to decide, in those days in the Castle of Cecilia of, what would be done in Germany and in the territories occupied by the Nazis, thus establishing new frontiers in Europe, as well as the influence of the winning powers on the continent. If the fight against fascism and Nazism had united the Allies, the end of the war brought a new scenario in which interests were not only different, but antagonistic. The beginning of the polarization between Soviet Union, communist, and United States, capitalist, was being drawn.
