The Louisiana Purchase was a land purchase made by United States president, Thomas Jefferson, in 1803. He bought the Louisiana territory from France, which was being led by Napoleon Bonaparte at the time, for 15,000,000 USD. First, the men sent to France were allowed to spend up to 10 million USD in order to buy New Orleans and, if possible, the west bank of the Mississippi River. But then the French government said that for 5 million more dollars they would sell all of the Louisiana territory. Thomas Jefferson approved the deal and used his constitutional power to sign treaties to buy the land.

Napoleon Bonaparte sold the land because he needed money for the Great French War.

Why was the battle of Midway such an important battle in the war for the Pacific? Explain your answer.
Hoochie [10]

Answer: It effectively ended Japanese Naval Supremacy.

Explanation:

Before the Battle of Midway, the Japanese were a very formidable force in the Pacific. Their navy boasted of several aircraft carriers which allowed them to sink ships with planes and they used this to devastating effect against the Americans at Pearl Harbor and the Australians.

The Japanese knew that if they could capture Midway, they would get the opportunity to negotiate favorably with the Americans and the Americans knew they could not lose Midway due to its strategic location.

The Americans broke the Japanese code for the battle and figured out their plans and used this to inflict a heavy loss on the Japanese by sinking 4 of their aircraft carriers. The Japanese Navy never recovered from this and for the rest of the war, they were on the defensive.
