On April 30, 1803, President Thomas Jefferson facilitated one of the greatest real estate deals in history when he purchased from France over 800,000 square miles west of the Mississippi River.
The landmass that changed hands in the Louisiana Purchase was much larger than what makes up the current state. For a price tag of $15 million ($193 million by today's standards), America purchased more than 23% of the current U.S. territory. The product of an unlikely chain of events born of mishap, backroom bargaining, and the whims of a several colorful personalities, this monumental deal heralded Napoleon's downfall and the twilight of European dominance in North America.
