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 is an understanding of history important to writing an effective inaugural address? ​
bixtya [17]

Answer: If one can not understand history, they are doomed to repeat it.

Explanation:

Many socialist regimes fell due to moronic leadership and horrible government(plagued by socialism). With that in mind, it wouldn’t be so good if a president’s inaugural address was similar to socialists’ speeches or included socialist ideas.

We know that the Maya widely cultivated maize, or corn. why do you suppose it is not listed as a trade item?​
fgiga [73]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Maize was the most significant yield in Maya horticulture for some reasons:</em> it developed well in the atmosphere, it was effectively put away, it could be eaten in various ways <em>(for example entire or utilized as a sort of flour)</em>, and had numerous different uses <em>(for example for bins, fuel, and so on.)</em>, making it a crucial piece of life.

Corn turned into a staple food and significant exchange product. With expanded exchange came riches and the development of urban communities into <em>huge urban-states, similar to those of the Classic Maya progress.</em>
