Best Answer

France ceded most of its territory to the east of the Mississippi to Great Britain in the aftermath of Britain's victory in the Seven Years' War (French and Indian War). The rest of Louisiana went to Spain after the Seven Years' War by the Treaty of Fontainebleau of 1763. It was returned to France in 1800, and Napoleon sold it to the US in 1803.

When did Spain transfer Louisiana territory to France?

In 1762 ceded what came to be called the Louisiana Territory to Spain in return for their help during the French and Indian wars. In 1800 my sources tell me that Spain gave or sold the territory back to France. In turn France sold it to the U.S. in 1803. I do not know how or why the transfer in 1800 was done. In writing a small history project, I would like to find how that transfer was made, and why. Any help?
