The Louisiana Purchase, while expanding U.S. territory, had several cons, including the potential for increased tensions with Native American tribes, whose lands were encroached upon. It also heightened the debate over slavery, as the new territories raised questions about the extension of slaveholding states versus free states, contributing to sectional conflict. Additionally, the vast and largely uncharted land posed challenges in governance, infrastructure development, and integration into the Union.
