I'm theorizing a bit, but it could be that the Napoleonic War would have ended sooner without the funds from the Louisiana Purchase. If that happened, then Britain would have been much more successful in the War of 1812.

"before Louisiana Purchase" is too vague - there were lots of different maps of the United States prior to the Louisiana Purchase. A date (year) would be better for the title.

Basically the title, in 1803 only 3 years after acquiring it, Napoleon sold the Louisiana territory to the U.S for only $11,250,000 which would be less than ¢3 and acre today. Why did he sell such a valuable territory for almost nothing in return?

The US would probably get that land eventually, the whole reason why the Louisiana Purchase happened was that Napolean thought that territory didn't have much use for him and really just wanted to get it off his hands. Originally, Thomas Jefferson just wanted to buy New Orleans and a bit of its surrounding area, but Napolean offered him the entire territory at an extremely cheap price. Most ...

The Louisiana purchase was 827,000 square miles purchased for 15 million. 15,000,000 / 827,000 = $18.14 per square mile Divide that $18.14 by 640 acres per square mile is 18.14 / 640 = 0.0283 cents per acre. So essentially we bought the Louisiana purchase at $.02 per acre. That land has probably produce trillions in GDP since its purchase.

Mexican American was 70 million. Acquiring the dispute free right to the Louisiana purchase, while also maintaining good standing with the French and not making ourselves as international scoundrels was a deal. Stealing the territory could easily have set the stage for a conflict that would cost far more than the 15 million.

What happened to the French settlers in the Louisiana territories after the Louisiana purchase? Did they immediately become US citizens? Was there any sort of resistance, peaceful or otherwise, to the change in governing state? It seems to me like a large territory suddenly switching ownership between nations would be a logistical nightmare.

What if the Louisiana Purchase never happened? Let's say the coalition between France and Russia doesn't end, and Napoleon has bigger success on the front lines. He doesn't need to sell the Louisianan territory because his war debts aren't as high as in OTL. When the deal comes up, Napoleon declines.
