The Lewis and Clark expedition opened up the West for settlement. :]
It was the Treaty of Greenville
The Homestead Act of 1862 opened up what would become Montana and Wyoming for settlement. Montana became a US Territory in 1864 and Wyoming in 1868.
In 1806 the Louisiana Purchase was open territory with no settlement except for Native American villages. So, the answer to your question is none.
In almost all cases, settlement will bring more people to the area. These people will become customers in general stores and blacksmith shops, and will require more businesses to open; thus, improving the economy.
Vast amounts of territory became open and available to settlement, and many of the pioneers were children of pioneers themselves.

Lewis and Clark led an expedition to explore the newly-acquired Louisiana Purchase and find a practical route to the Pacific Ocean. They mapped the western territories, documented new plant and animal species, and established peaceful relationships with Native American tribes along the way. Their expedition provided valuable information that helped open the American West for settlement and expansion.
Before Lewis and Clarks expedition, most of what was known about land west of the Mississippi was all myth. The expedition helped locate and lay out a "survivable" route to the west, and helped identify what Native American tribes could be counted on to be friendly, and the ones who were not so friendly.
William Clark was an American explorer and soldier who is best known for co-leading the Lewis and Clark Expedition of 1804-1806. This expedition was the first overland exploration of the western United States and helped to open up the American West to further exploration and settlement. Clark also served as a brigadier general in the War of 1812 and later held various political positions in the Missouri Territory.
The Lewis and Clark expedition was commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson in 1803 to explore the newly acquired Louisiana Territory, seek a water route to the Pacific Ocean, and establish American presence in the region. They aimed to gather information on the land, resources, people, and wildlife of the West and to establish fur trade relationships with Native American tribes.
They left from St. Louis, but beyond that there was no modern towns. It was wide open land. Even today they might recognize some of the landscape because it hasn't changed that much.
Well,,their purpose WAS'NT to open up trade with the native's. ( although that did happen later.) They were sent to find an all-water route across the great divide,,by tom jefferson,president of USA,,,There is no practical water route across our country,,but that did not stop them from trying,,Sacagawea was a translater for them,,when they needed it.
Lewis and Clark used one keeled boat light strong at least 60 feet in length her burthen equal to 8 tons. They also used one large wooden canoe. Finally, they had 52 pirogues or "open boats."
Captain Lewis was the leader of the famous Lewis and Clark Corps of Discovery. This group of 31 men set out in 1803 and made their way across the North American continent to the Pacific Ocean and returned safely with 30 of their 31 men. They showed that the continent could be crossed and first created the notion that the United States might one day extend to the Pacific Ocean. They surveyed a huge area and were the first to document many species of plants and animals. They did meticulous measurements. The members of the group went on to do great things -- documenting Yellowstone, making treaties with native tribes, and helping open the west. Lieutenant Clark was later Brigadier General Clark of the Missouri National Guard and was an important figure for many years. Captain Lewis had a type of bipolar disorder and took his own life a few years after the completion of the expedition.
No, they had four goals. They wanted to, Map rivers, make friends with Native Americans, open up west to trade and look for northwest passage.
