In the begininng it belonged to France, or to be more specific Napolean. Then the American's bought it, a.k.a the American colonists, and then a few years later the borders were determined and the land was given to America. Also! when the Louisiana purchase was made, it made the American territory almost double in size, and from then on the American colonists were able to prosper and get R!CH.. mostly from trade.
