One thing that happened was President Thomas Jefferson selected Meriwether Lewis and William Clark -- both experienced Army officers -- to explore the vast territory the United Stares received from France in 1803. The Lewis and Clark expedition began on May 14, 1804, when the explorers departed from St. Louis. Aided by a Shoshone woman named Sacagawea, they eventually maneuvered their way to the Pacific Ocean on November 8, 1805. They became the first white explorers to make it there by an overland route. The expedition returned to St. Louis on September 23, 1806 with an abundance of information about the newly explored region.l
