Thomas Jefferson has sent you to Paris to purchase the port city of New Orleans from Napoleon for no more than $10 million. Write a letter to President Jefferson explaining that you went over budget, buying all 820,000 square miles of the Louisiana Territory from Napoleon for $15 million, or about three cents per acre. With this purchase, you have more than doubled the size of the American lands. Justify your actions in 4-5 sentences.
