The document summarizes the history of ownership and acquisition of the Louisiana Territory by various nations including Native Americans, French, British, Spanish, and Americans. It describes how France gained control of the territory in 1682 but lost it to Spain in 1763. In 1800, Spain secretly transferred the territory back to France under Napoleon, alarming Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson sent diplomats to purchase New Orleans but Napoleon unexpectedly offered to sell the entire Louisiana Territory for $15 million. In 1803, the United States completed the Louisiana Purchase, doubling the nation's size and opening vast new lands for settlement and exploration like the Lewis and Clark Expedition.

Museum - Pens to Parchment - Louisiana Purchase Bicentennial
This is the story of how with the stroke of a pen, a fledgling America doubled its size and became a world power almost overnight. Our story recounts how this, more than any single event, would forever alter the course of our nation’s history. It was a time of global conflict. The Americans had just won independence from England. France was recovering from its own revolution. The powers in Europe were facing war on the continent while seeking to expand their empires beyond the boundaries of their own shores. Spain, England, and France had laid claim to territory in this so called “new world” across the sea. The American colonists, newly independent, were trying to make their own way. Thomas Jefferson knew that in order to our westward expansion and to secure the lifeline of trade we had to control the Mississippi River, and that meant the port of New Orleans. Then, as if to fulfill what some would call our manifest destiny, a sequence of events coincided to present us an opportunity of a lifetime. In a bold move out country entered into what’s been called the greatest real estate transaction of all time, known simply as the Louisiana Purchase. We acquired more than 800,000 square miles for $15 million dollars. That’s about 4 cents an acre for a territory that who’s natural resources held riches beyond anyone’s ability to calculate. As General Horatio Gates said to President Jefferson July 18th, 1803, “Let the land rejoice, for you have bought Louisiana for a song.” When we think of Louisiana as we know it today, it’s hard to imagine that it was once a vast territory stretching west across the plains to the Rocky Mountains, and north from the Gulf of Mexico all the way to the Canadian border. With the addition of an area greater than all of Western Europe, the United States suddenly became one of the largest nations in the world. Ultimately all or part of 15 states would be carved out of the lands of the Louisiana Territory; Louisiana, April 30th, 1812; Missouri, August 10th, 1821; Arkansas, June 15th, 1836; Texas, December 29th, 1845; Iowa, December 28th, 1846; Minnesota, May 11th, 1858; Kansas, January 29th, 1861; Nebraska March 1st, 1867; Colorado, August 1st, 1876; North Dakota, November 2nd, 1889; South Dakota, November 2nd, 1889; Montana, November 8th, 1889; Wyoming, July 10th, 1890; Oklahoma, November 16th, 1907; New Mexi.
The Louisiana Purchase refers to the acquisition of the territory of Louisiana by the United States from France. This land was about 828,000 square miles and covered the west of the Mississippi River. The President of the United States then, Thomas Jefferson, purchased this territory at $15 million dollars and is considered as one of the most significant achievements of his presidency
One of the major causes of the American Revolution was this theatre of war which was a part of the larger Seven Years War fought between the major European powers.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Napoleon, an aggressive,
ambitious military genius.
Mosquito, an aggressive,
yellow-fever-carrying insect.
O K Guys, I’m
taking over!
That’s
what
you
think!
12. Why Does Napoleon Want
Louisiana?
• Emperor Napoleon
Bonaparte has a vision of
a renewed western empire
for France.
• Control over the vast
Louisiana Territory would
halt the westward
expansion of the young
United States and would
supply French colonies in
the West Indies with the
goods they needed.
13. Napoleon’s Scheme
• His scheme includes the
recapture of Louisiana from
a very weak Spain.
• Napoleon takes a break
from his conquests in
Europe to send French
troops to the West Indies.
I LOVE
power!

pressure from Napoleon
Bonaparte, King Charles
IV of Spain, gives ALL of
Louisiana, including New
Orleans, back to France,

“national”
interests.

19. Western U.S. Territories
Many people along the
Mississippi viewed
themselves as the
seeds of an
independent nation
that would tap into the
world marketplace, not
by going east to the
Atlantic seaboard, but
by following the Ohio
and Mississippi river
system down to the Gulf
of Mexico.
20. Jefferson’s Plan
• Jefferson knew the
inhabitants of this region
posed a risk of secession
from the United States.
After all, the nation, only
18 years old, was born of
rebellion.
• He was determined to
obtain the vital trading port
of New Orleans for the
United States, in part to
prevent the West from
breaking away.
Port of New Orleans (1870)
21. The Secret is Discovered
• 1801 — President Thomas
Jefferson is shocked when
he learns the secret Treaty
of San Idelfonso.
• Considering strong French
control over New Orleans to
be a serious threat, he
instructs his Minister to
France in Paris, Robert R.
Livingston, to try to buy
New Orleans and Florida, or
at least western Florida.
Jefferson
just wants
a little
port.
Robert Livingston,
Minister to France
22. Jefferson Stands Up to Napoleon
• Also, Jefferson let it be
known that the U.S
would ally itself with
England and fight
France if the French
start a war on the
continent.
• The French decline to
sell New Orleans or
western Florida.
I weel have it
all!!

Florida in the West Indies is having some
problems.

24. Napoleon’s Plan Collapses
1803- Napoleon's plan
collapses when his
Caribbean army is
defeated by yellow fever
carrying mosquitoes and
a brilliant black general
named Toussaint
L’Overture who has been
leading a slave revolt on
French Haiti for 12 years.
I
LOVE
power!
General Toussaint
L’Overture
25. The Best-Laid Plans…
• The remaining French
troops are forced to return
to France defeated. Thus
preventing them from
reaching their ultimate
destination--Louisiana--
and from being able to
defend it.
• As Napoleon's New World
empire disintegrates, the
loss of French Haiti makes
Louisiana unnecessary.
I hate
mosquitoes
!
27. Jefferson Persists
• President Jefferson,
learning that the
defeated French might
be willing to consider
selling some land after
all, sends Monroe to
Paris with instructions
from Secretary of State,
James Madison, to buy
a small piece of land.
• Congress appropriates
$2 million.
You can
count on
me to
secure
the deal,
Mr.
President.
James Monroe,
Minister to Spain and
France
28. The French Reply
Charles Maurice de
Talleyrand-Perigord, the
French Minister of Foreign
Relations, declines the offer.
$2
million?
No
deal!
Charles Maurice de
Talleyrand-Perigord, the
French Minister of Foreign
Relations
29. The BIG Surprise!
Needing money to
prosecute his
campaigns elsewhere
on the globe, Napoleon
changes his mind and
decides to offer to sell
ALL of Louisiana,
(including New Orleans)
to the United States.
You may
have zee
whole
territory.
I’m going
home.
30. Let’s Make A Deal
• Robert Livingston is
prepared to pay only
$2 million for a PORT
such as New Orleans.
• Talleyrand says
Louisiana would be
worthless to France
without the port city,
and asks Livingston to
make an offer. Louisiana Purchase negotiations
31. Jefferson Acts Quickly
• Although there are no
provisions in the
Constitution for buying
territories, Jefferson, a
Republican, has
Congress appropriate
$10 million.
• The Federalist Party is
very unhappy.
I will stretch
my
presidential
power ‘till it
cracks!

32. The Final Offer
How about
$15 million
for ALL of it?

Relations
Robert Livingston,
Minister to France
Let’s see
James,
Congress
only gave
us $10
million.
James Monroe,
Minister to France
and Spain
33. A Waste of Money?
• Amazed by the offer,
Jefferson accepted and
rushed the treaty through
Congress, in spite of doubts
about its constitutionality.
• Federalists attacked the
purchase not only as a
blatant use of executive
power, but as a waste of
money.
• Nevertheless, the treaty was
signed.
Louisiana Purchase Treaty
34. What Jefferson Got
• April 30, 1803 - the
United States
negotiates the purchase
of the Louisiana
Territory including the
port of New Orleans
from France for $15
million.
• With a stroke of a pen
America doubled in
size, making it one of
the largest nations
in the world.
$15,000,000!
35. A Sweet Deal!
The sale included over
600 million acres at a
cost of less than 3
cents an acre in what
today is the better part
of 13 states between
the Rocky Mountains
and the Mississippi
River.
36. Without Shedding A Single
Drop of Blood!
• For President Thomas
Jefferson it was a
diplomatic and political
triumph.
• In one fell swoop the
purchase of Louisiana
ended the threat of war
with France and opened
up the land west of the
Mississippi to
settlement.
