The Louisiana Purchase Treaty of 1803 was crucial in the study of Manifest Destiny as it doubled the U.S. territory, influenced westward expansion, and represented the belief that Americans were destined to expand across the continent. It facilitated subsequent exploration and settlement of the region, embodying the ideals of progress and opportunity. This land acquisition was seen as a step towards fulfilling America's manifest destiny to spread democracy and agriculture.
