Napolean Bonaparte owed a favor to Thomas Jefferson

Answer 1

Napoleon Bonaparte owed a favor to Thomas Jefferson

Step-by-step explanation:

France was indeed at war with Britain and it was losing the Haitian Revolution, which leaves two answers. France was losing military forces and therefore couldn't defend Louisiana if it was attacked, so the third choice is not likely. This leaves the last choice. Nowhere, as far as I know, did Napoleon owe a favor to Thomas Jefferson. I may be wrong though.
