One of my greatest accomplishments was exploring the Louisiana territory in mid 1803. My goal was to explore the land, animals, native people and their cultures. I also had to find a route to the pacific ocean. We board a ship making numerous stops along the way to record our data and findings.
Exploring new land had many effects good and bad. Having purchase this new land, would help expand the united states. Which would make the economy one. This also means less rivals and wars. The negative part about this is that strange people are moving into this land and trying to control what the native people have. This made conflicts between the people. Some long term effects were that eventually all the other territory would be taken over either by force or bought because they Louisiana territory's army grew. A short term effect was the economy grew twice as big and the army grew as well.
