| Description |
This image depicts the Territorial acquisitions of the United States, such as the Thirteen Colonies, the Louisiana Purchase, British and Spanish Cession, and so on. [edit] ErrorsThis map uses incorrect terms in that Great Britain didn't exist as a political entity in 1818 or 1846, having been superseded by the United Kingdom following the Act of Union with Ireland in 1801. The map shows a portion of the en:Isle of Orleans as part of the West Florida (Spanish Cession) 1819, but the area south of Lake Pontchartrain and east of the Amite River were part of the Louisiana Purchase 1803 (from France). |
