Histoire : Colonie de la couronne de France (1731), la Louisiane occidentale fut cédée à l'Espagne en 1762 et la rive droite du Mississippi à l'Angleterre en 1763. La partie espagnole ayant été rétrocédée à la France (1800), Bonaparte qui avait besoin d'argent et souhaitait éviter la lutte avec l'Angleterre sur ce terrain, vendit la Louisiane à la jeune république des États-Unis pour 15 millions de dollars (Traité du 30 avril 1803). 3, record 6, French, - Louisiane
