The land acquired by the United States in the Louisiana Purchase included the current state of Louisiana. In purchasing France's territories west of the Mississippi, Jefferson took a risk by extending the power of the federal government and testing the limits of the U.S. Constitution.
Louisiana Purchase summary: The United States bought 828,000 square miles of land from France in 1803.
