The Louisiana Purchase in 1803 doubled the size of the United States by acquiring 828,000 square miles from France for $15 million. President Thomas Jefferson viewed this purchase as a crucial step for expanding agriculture and fulfilling his vision for a nation of farmers. This significant acquisition ensured U.S. control over vital trade routes and set the stage for future expansion westward.
