The answer is option A "It was an agreement in which the United States purchased the Louisiana territory from France." The Louisiana purchase was actually a big chunk of the united states and it contained over 15 states including: Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, etc.. United States paid fifth-teen million dollars for the land it they bought it from France.
