Der Louisiana Purchase (Louisiana-Kauf; im Französischen vente de la Louisiane, d. h. Verkauf von Louisiana) war der Kauf von 2.144.476 km² Land, das die USA 1803 von Frankreich erwarben. Der Kaufpreis betrug damals 15 Millionen US-Dollar oder 80 Millionen französische Francs (7 US-Dollar pro km²). Gemessen an der Kaufkraft entspricht das einem heutigen Wert von circa 251 Millionen US-Dollar oder knapp 117 Dollar pro km² (Stand 2018).[1]
Verkauft wurde das Gebiet der ehemaligen Kolonie Louisiana, das westlich des Mississippi River lag. Dieses Gebiet ist viel größer als der heutige Staat Louisiana: Es umfasst außer Teilen des heutigen Louisiana auch die heutigen Staaten Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas und Nebraska sowie Teile von Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, außerdem noch Randgebiete der kanadischen Provinzen Manitoba, Saskatchewan und Alberta.
Der Louisiana Purchase war das größte Grundstücksgeschäft der Geschichte. Das gekaufte Land verdoppelte damals das Territorium der Vereinigten Staaten und macht fast ein Viertel des heutigen Staatsgebiets aus.
路易斯安那购地(英语:Louisiana Purchase;法语:Vente de la Louisiane)是美国于1803年以每英亩三美分向法国购买超过529,911,680英亩(2,144,476平方公里)土地的交易案,该交易的总价为1500万美元或相当于8000万法郎;若计算通货膨胀等因素,此数额在今日相当于3亿100万美元。如以国内生产总值相对比例计算,此数额在2004年相当于4,178亿美元。而土地上所有后续条约和财务结算的总成本,估计约为26亿美元。[1]。
法属路易斯安那的版图远超今日美国的路易斯安那州。从南至北,该属地范围包括了现今美国路易斯安那州密西西比河两岸(包括新奥尔良市)、阿肯色州、奥克拉荷马州、德克萨斯州北部边界地带、新墨西哥州东北角、密苏里州、堪萨斯州、科罗拉多州洛基山脉以东、爱荷华州、内布拉斯加州、怀俄明州大部(落基山脉以东)、明尼苏达州密西西比河以西、南达科他州、北达科他州大部、蒙大拿州大部(除西端),以及现今加拿大马尼托巴、萨斯喀彻温、艾伯塔各省之密苏里河流域地区(也即南部边境地带)。购地所涉土地面积是今日美国国土的22.3%,与当时美国原有国土面积大致相当,因此使得当时美国的国土翻倍。













Im Jahr 1971 erwarb T. Boone Pickens etwa 2.900 Morgen entlang der Südseite des Canadian River in Roberts County, Texas. Die einzige bauliche Verbesserung auf diesem Grundstück war ein kleines Futterhaus aus Wellblech, das Boone als Unterstand nutzte, um sich bei der Wachteljagd warm zu halten.
Im Laufe der Jahre begann Boone, weiteres angrenzendes Land entlang des Canadian River-Korridors zu erwerben, und heute umfasst die Mesa Vista Ranch über 100 Quadratmeilen erstklassiges Ranchland im östlichen Texas Panhandle.
Im Laufe der Zeit gab Boone Millionen und Abermillionen von Dollar aus, um Mesa Vista zu einer der am besten ausgebauten Ranches in den Vereinigten Staaten zu machen.






























































































































































































































In vielen der 50 Bundesstaaten der USA gibt es Wintersportgebiete, von Maine bis nach Kalifornien. Vor allem drei große Gebirgszüge machen das Skifahren in den Vereinigten Staaten möglich: Zum einen sind dies die Rocky Mountains, die die sogenannten Mountain States durchqueren (Colorado, Nevada, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho und Utah). Die Cascades Range zieht sich von Kanada über Oregon bis hinunter nach Kalifornien. Im Osten der USA befinden sich zudem die Appalachen.
