After the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, the part of the Louisiana Purchase that would eventually become the State of Louisiana was organized into the Territory of Orleans.
The Territory of Louisiana was the other part of the Louisiana purchase that became the State of Arkansas and everything North of that.
(The land north of Lake Ponchartrain and east of the Mississippi River was known as "West Florida" and was owned at the time by Great Britain.)
Current states including territory that had been part of the Louisiana Territory include the following:
- Missouri
- Arkansas
- Texas
- Iowa
- Minnesota
- Kansas
- Nebraska
- Colorado
- North Dakota
- South Dakota
- Montana
- Wyoming
- Oklahoma
- New Mexico
There are also parts of Saskatchewan and Alberta that were in the Louisiana Territory.
The State of Louisiana was not in the Louisiana territory, as the Louisiana Purchase territory had been divided into the Territory of Orleans, which became the State of Louisiana, and the District of Louisiana, which became the Territory of Louisiana.
