The Louisiana Purchase, completed in 1803, dramatically expanded the size of the United States by approximately 828,000 square miles, effectively doubling the nation's territory. This acquisition stretched from the Mississippi River to the Rocky Mountains and from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, greatly enhancing the country's resources and potential for westward expansion. It paved the way for further exploration and settlement, significantly influencing the nation's growth and development in the early 19th century.
