The sale of Louisiana to the United States in 1803 faced protests primarily from Spanish officials and some French nationalists. Spain, which had regained control of the territory in 1800, was concerned about losing it again, while certain factions in France, particularly those loyal to Napoleon Bonaparte, opposed the sale, viewing it as a betrayal of French interests in North America. Additionally, some American settlers and land speculators were wary of the implications of such a large territory being incorporated into the United States.
