Louisiana Purchase
1800
For a short period, France, until the end of the Seven Years' War. France ceded the western half of Louisiana to Spain in 1763, and the eastern half to Great Britain. France regained the western part of Louisiana (secretly) in 1800 and sold it to the US in 1803.
In 1762, France ceded ownership of Louisiana to Spain through the secret Treaty of Fontainebleau. This transfer occurred as France sought to compensate Spain for its losses in the Seven Years' War and to strengthen Spanish control in North America. The formal transfer of control took place in 1763, and Spain governed Louisiana until the territory was returned to France in 1800.
France had complete control of the Louisiana Territory from its acquisition in 1682 until 1762, when it ceded the territory to Spain following the Seven Years' War. Although France briefly regained control in 1800 through the Treaty of San Ildefonso, it effectively lost authority over the territory when it sold it to the United States in the Louisiana Purchase of 1803. Thus, the period of French control can be considered primarily from 1682 to 1762, with a brief reassertion before the sale.
After 1800, the United States acquired four significant areas: the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, which doubled the size of the nation; Florida, obtained from Spain in 1819; Texas, which became part of the U.S. in 1845 after gaining independence from Mexico; and the Oregon Territory, which was jointly occupied with Britain until the U.S. took full control in 1846. These acquisitions greatly expanded U.S. territory and influence.
