The Spanish municipality of Alameda is approximately 85 square kilometers.

Article One of the United States Constitution provides for a federal district, distinct from the states, to serve as the permanent national capital. Specifically: "District (not exceeding ten miles square) as may, by cession of particular states, and the acceptance of Congress, become the seat of the government of the United States"I.e. the District can not be larger than ten miles square (or 100 square miles)
alot of people would argue and say that it was the Louisiana Purchase, but it was actually the Mexican Cession. Addition: This is the problem when people randomly answer questions. The Mexican Cession was just over half a million square millions. The Louisiana Purchase was over 800,000 square miles. Maybe the original person who wrote this was thinking square km since the Mexican Cession is larger if one places it in KM and the Louisiana Purchase in square miles. However, if you convert one, you have to convert the other and that means the latter would still be larger.
Thomas Jefferson concluded the Louisiana Purchase which totalled 828,800 square miles. The Mexican Cession was 525.000 square miles, but if the land that Texas claimed is added in, it totals about 1.2 million square miles and was concluded under James K. Polk. Andrew Johnson picked up a mere 663,268 square miles with the purchase of Alaska. William McKinley's acquired Puerto Rico (3,515 square miles), Hawaii (10.931 square miles), Guam (209 square miles) and the Philippines (115,831 square miles) for a total of 130,486 square miles which is hardly a drop in the bucket. Jefferson got the best deal by far because like the purchase of Alaska no lives were squandered in warfare and no Army had to be equipped and paid for to achieve the National goal and neither were seen as acts of American Imperialism by the World in general.
The largest Spanish-speaking country by land area is Argentina, covering approximately 2.8 million square kilometers.
