The Lewis and Clark expedition did not gain any land for the United States. The expedition was sent to explore land that was recently purchased from France. The area was known as Louisiana territory.
they went to explore the new land
The United States. Our third President - Jefferson, bought the Louisiana Purchase from France and sent Lewis and Clark to explore the new land.
== == Not sure what you are asking. The U.S. Government bought the Louisiana purchase, which Meriweather Lewis and William Clark were well known for exploring. History records where they lived, but I can find no information as to whether they bought land or just inherited it.
Lewis and Clark are famous for what they did because they were sent out to unknown land and set to explore and discover things like water routes to the pacific ocean and write a description of the territory
Louisiana Purchase
Lewis and Clark explored the northerly land west of the Mississippi River by foot.
Yeah, they explored the Louisiana Purchase.
Lewis and Clark where send my their former president Thomas Jefferson to explore the land that at that time had not been explored by the U.S.
Lewis and Clark explored parts of what is now Nevada in 1805. They were hunted at this time by people representing Spain because Nevada was in Spanish Territory. The Spaniards thought Lewis and Clark were encroaching on their land.
It was bought from France when Napoleon needed lots of money to fund his wars in Europe.
They didn't really discover anything they just explored land along the United States border
Since there weren't many roads in the 1800s and most land that Lewis and Clark explored was unknown, rivers were one of the only ways they could travel. The rivers were how fur trappers traveled.
Meriwether Lewis and William Clark explored the land bought through the Louisiana Purchase. Sacagawea, a Native American, assisted them.
Lewis and Clark were each granted 320 acres of land for their military service. However, both Lewis and Clark encountered complications and delays in securing their land claims.
Well actually, they didnt nessecarily settle on a particular land. Lewis and clark moved a lot. They traveld from Mississippi to the Pacific Ocean. So they pretty much were on a lot of different pieces of land. (:
they explored thee Mississippi river along with the rest of the country to survey the new land that America had just aqquired.
