Marissa Lemke "Slavery"

  • Louisiana Purchase

    Louisiana Purchase
    The United States bought Louisiana. The U.S paid a total of 15 million dollars, thats less than 3 cents per acre. During this purchase Thomas Jefferson was the U.S president. At this time this purchase was domestic oppisition because it was declaired unconstitutional. This event would be considered Economical, Political, and Social, because it has to do wih money, the president, and the people.

    The Mexican American War was an armed conflict beween Mexico and America. This lasted until 1846-1848. So almost 2 whole years. I would consider this a political because the U.S president is the one who dealts with wars against other countries.
