Jefferson thought he could avoid war by buying the Louisiana territory because France territory was right next to american territory therefore he was afraid they would fight over land and he didn't want to lose France's alliance so he asked France if he could buy Louisiana territory,but surprisingly France needed money after wasting its money on a long war with Great Britain
