The state of Florida was never purchased by the U.S. It was traded back and forth between nations by a series of treaties and by the U.S. Revolutionary War against Great Britain.In 1763 Spain traded Florida to Great Britain in return for Cuba. Great Britain divided the territory into East Florida and West Florida, which extended all the way to the Mississippi River and north far into Mississippi and Alabama. In 1784, the Treaty of Paris ending the U.S. Revolutionary War returned Florida to Spain, but without describing any boundaries.In 1795, during George Washington's presidency, the Treaty of San Lorenzo set the northern boundary of Florida at the 31st parallel. In 1810, President James Madison claimed West Florida as part of the Louisiana Purchase made by President Thomas Jefferson.In 1819 during the James Monroe presidency, the Adams-Onis Treaty was signed which gave the U.S. possession of Florida beginning in 1821. Florida became an official U.S. Territory in 1822, and became the State of Florida in 1845 at the beginning of James K Polk's presidency.
The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo ended the US-Mexican War in 1848. From this treaty the United States gained 500,000 square miles of territory and emerged as a major world power. However, the United States was rather arrogant while making this treaty, which kind of spoiled Mexico and American relations. It is one of the oldest treaties that is still in effect with Mexico and the United States.

Pinckney's Treaty was a treaty signed between the United States and Spain. It defined the boundaries between the United States and the Spanish colonies and guaranteed the United States navigation rights on the Mississippi River.
President Monroe blamed England for not upholding the Pinckney treaty. The treaty was ratified in 1824 with so many limitations that the British withdrew support.
Monroe served during the Era of Good Feeling. There was no organized opposition to him in 1820. The Federalist Party had collapsed and did not field a candidate to run against Monroe. In 1816, there were some who did not like the treaty that ended the War of 1812 and blamed Monroe for it.
James Monroe was the President when the Adams-Onis Treaty was negotiated and signed.
James Monroe was responsible for The Monroe Doctrine, Adams-Onis Treaty, and the Tariff of 1824. He also was the fifth president of the United States.
