The Corps of Discovery was a group of explorers led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark that was commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson in 1804 to explore and map the newly acquired Louisiana Territory. They journeyed from St. Louis to the Pacific Ocean, establishing diplomatic relations with Native American tribes and documenting the flora, fauna, and geography of the region. Their expedition helped to expand knowledge of the American West and paved the way for future migration and settlement.
