Before becoming a part of the United States, Arkansas was originally part of the Spanish Empire, following the exploration and settlement by the Spanish in the 16th century. It was later transferred to France in the early 18th century through the Treaty of Fontainebleau in 1762. After the French and Indian War, Arkansas became part of British territory in 1763, before being acquired by the United States as part of the Louisiana Purchase in 1803.
