the united states was given Florida throught the treaty of 1819
The Florida Cession, which refers to the transfer of Florida from Spain to the United States in 1819, encompasses approximately 72,000 square miles. This area includes both the Florida peninsula and the panhandle. The cession was formalized in the Adams-Onís Treaty, which established the boundaries of Florida and defined its territory as part of the U.S.
It was called The Treaty of Guadalupe Hilgado.
The Florida Cession, also known as the Adams-Onís Treaty, was purchased from Spain in 1819 for $5 million. Negotiated by U.S. Secretary of State John Quincy Adams, the treaty resolved territorial disputes between the U.S. and Spain and ceded Florida to the United States. In return, the U.S. agreed to assume $5 million in claims by American citizens against Spain, solidifying American control over Florida and establishing boundaries for westward expansion. The treaty was ratified in 1821, officially transferring Florida to the U.S.
Florida became a part of the United States on March 3, 1845, when it was admitted as the 27th state. Prior to that, Florida was acquired from Spain through the Adams-Onís Treaty, which was signed in 1819 and ratified in 1821. The treaty resolved territorial disputes and marked Spain's cession of Florida to the U.S.
On February 2, 1848 the Treaty Guadalupe-Hidalgo consolidated the Mexican Cession.
